	I grep'd the SIMTEL archive DOS catalog for "PostScript" and
for "troff" and came up with nothing for a DOS machine. Since SIMTEL's
storehouse contains practically everything in the PD, Freeware, and
Shareware areas, this does not bode well for finding it for a DOS
machine.
	If you want this for a UNIX box, you should take a look
at what is available in SIMTEL directory:

	PD2:<UNIX-C>

	I do not have the archive's catalog for that directory.
