I'd like to be able to format up text under minix.  Yeah I know about
roff.  But its not up to the task of coping with an "me" like macro
package, no number registers or conditionals.  Most of my stuff (ie: thesis)
is in "me" format

If anyone has managed to create a setup where they can format "me"
documents or a reasonable subset I'd really appreciate it.

Failing that I'm supposed to get into TeX sometime, if I ever get
any free time again!  Has anyone put up common-Tex under minix yet?

	Lee
