GNU groff version 0.4 is now available.  This is a beta-test release.
It is available for anonymous uucp from osu-cis and anonymous ftp from
tut.cis.ohio-state.edu and soon, if not already, from prep.ai.mit.edu.
Get groff-0.4.tar.Z (approximately 760k).

The major new feature in this release is support for fractional point
sizes. Also new in gtroff is the ability to write arbitrary files.
There are a couple of new features in gpic: boxes will have rounded
corners if you give them a non-zero radius attribute; text can be
rotated so that it is aligned with the object of which it is an
attribute (this feature is only available with PostScript output
devices.)
