Can anyone offer any comparisons between Transcript from Adobe
and Devps from Pipeline Associates?  I will be using the product
with a network of SUNs and currently only have old troff
(no ditroff, yet) and its friends.  The adverts for
Devps are interesting, but I would like to hear from some
real users of the product before I buy it.  Transcript is
supported by SUN so it does have a few advantages, but
source for Devps is much cheaper, and I always like to have
source.  But the more important question is "How badly
do I *need* the source?"

Replies by email appreciated, but notes to the list are fine with me.
