Check out cawf, my C version of Henry Spencer's Amazingly Workable (text)
Formatter, awf.  Cawf and awf do a reasonable job on manual pages and
light-weight ms(7) documents.

You'll find a PC executable and source at Simtel and various mirror sites.
I know it's in mirrors/msdos/txtutl/cawf.zip at wuarchive.wustl.edu.
