This is nroff for GNO. This is fairly close to the real UNIX
|
|
|
|
|
nroff, although there are still some things that this one doesn't
|
|
|
|
|
do that it should.

This software was ported by Mike Horwath and Jawaid Bazyar for
|
|
|
|
|
the GNO Multitasking Environment. Various bug fixes were applied
|
|
|
|
|
by Devin Reade.

Installation
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Type 'dmake install' in this directory, or copy the following
|
|
|
|
|
files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nroff --> /usr/bin/nroff
|
|
|
|
|
tmac.an --> /usr/lib/tmac/tmac.an
|
|
|
|
|
tmac.s --> /usr/lib/tmac/tmac.s
|
|
|
|
|
nroff.1 --> /usr/man/man1/nroff.1
|
|
|
|
|
man.7 --> /usr/man/man7/man.7

Check to see that you don't still have /bin/nroff installed.
|
|
|
|
|
If you do, delete it.

If you want to put the macro files somewhere other than in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/lib/tmac, then set your TMACDIR environment variable to
|
|
|
|
|
point to the directory in which they reside.

Compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
This software works with any GNO-compatible shell (Orca suffices,
|
|
|
|
|
but pipes don't work very well under Orca, and according to
|
|
|
|
|
dozens of GNO users, GNO is "simply superior".)

Bugs

----

|
|
|
|
This program uses recursion, Not A Good Thing on the IIgs.

|
It really needs a rewrite. In the interim, I have left stack
|
|
|
|
|
overflow checking on. It currently uses 6k of stack which
|
|
|
|
|
is too much for a well behaved program of this size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The -ms package has not been reviewed recently and is not believed
|
|
|
|
|
to be generally usable.
