Could you please check it out.  I took a closer look at nroff, and decided to
rename it nro again (subsequent to the last posting).  It isn't even close
to nroff and it barely works, to boot.  If somebody is publishing the nroff
you have, it is probably copyright and we can't use it, but one never knows.
Various companies sell TEX, even though it is in the public domain.
