I wonder why I have it on Sun OS, on the two Amdhal UTS machines here, on the
R6000 AIX machine, etc.

I really would like to have it. It helps when it is time to print out
a man page, or, heaven forbid, when a change has to be documented.

Hey Apple, (not flaming here, esp. not you jms) couldn't you get us the
sources? Seems like most everyone else does.

Thanks.
