Keywords: ditroff dimp dip dwb

at the phoenix usenix conference, nat batchelder and trevor darrel (then with
u. penn's computer science dept.) presented a paper on a ditroff
post-processor named 'psfig.'  a key element of the software they described
was the ditroff incantation

	\X'message'

where message is passed intact to the postprocessor.

the version of ditroff we're running doesn't support \X commands.  i've
hacked it in, but given the complexity of the ditroff source, there are
bound to be unwanted side effects in my implementation.  i'd like to get the
standard implementation of this feature.  i presume it's in the latest
dwb release.  i presume that that release is 2.0.  straighten me out on any
of that if i'm wrong.

i'll also need the post-processor source for imagen laser printers that
supports this feature -- the program named 'dimp' or 'dip', depending on
who you are.  where can i go for the latest source code?  we're fully
licensed for dwb and berkeley unix.
