Actually, gremlin/grn/et. al. are part of the ditroff
distribution from UC Berkeley.  Included is also a
postprocessor, gr2ps, that generates PostScript from a
gremlin file (originally written by John Coker, I have
source with some bug fixes).  ATT & Berkeley ditroff have
some subtle differences that make grn incompatible with the
former, at least last time I looked.  I understand that
there is an effort underway to port gremlin to X11, but you
need to contact Berkeley for more information on that and
about their ditroff software in general.

Mark.
