First, of course troff or vditroff doesn't had any to do with connecting
machines together.

The makedev program is part of the Documentors Work Bench distribution. You
canget this from AT&T. You will need this anyway, since Dipress works only with
the new troff (ditroff).

 If you don't have a licence for these products, then
anybody giving you the makedev program will be violating it's licence.
