Yah, look in Dr. Dobb's Journal for the advertisements for M&T
Publishing's add.  Call them and tell them you want their book on
"NR".  NR is an nroff-clone written by Allen Holub, the author of Dr.
Dobb's C-Chest column.  NR is supposed to be 99% compatible with nroff
code, and includes two of the popular macro packages for nroff.  You
get the source, and it's only like $40~$50.
