It's ditroff. And it's got additions to support IBM's PC850 character set, which supports Western European languages in a slightly different character mapping than Latin-1. You may have different add-ons depending on the country where you bought your '6000, but to the best of my knowledge IBM doesn't supply a C/A/T troff for the '6000.
