But if/when you try groff, the ms macros need to either be renamed, or to be called as -mgs. They are in /usr/local/lib/groff/tmac as tmac.gs, and should be renamed as tmac.s to work. I'd send you the tmac.mgs file, but it is documented internally as being dependant on gtroff, so they wouldn't work for you without groff. If you're close enough to make an exchange of floppys practical, I could give you the binarys for groff, or you could get them from osu-cis. (I remember a posting that someone had put groff binaries there.)
