Hello all,
Just noticed a small typo in Ankarström's mk/mk/README.t:
$ diff README.t fix.t
812c812
< .i ux.tmac .
---
> .i kx.tmac .
I assume it is meant now meant to be kx.tmac after the name change?
Kind regards,

After feedback from Jean-Pierre, I've renamed the package to mk -- which
seems not to be taken yet!

Hello John,
Thank you for sharing your work. I've browsed your documentation, and love your
mu package, and your usage of environments. Simplicity is neat !

commands and macros.

Hi all!
I've been working on my own troff macro package for the last couple of
weeks, and I thought I'd share it with you here:
http://ankarstrom.se/~john/mu.html
The package is called "mu". In summary:

It has footnotes and tab
