When using DWB 2.0 troff (ditroff) with the MM or MAN macro package,
I get cut marks (--) on top of each page and at the end of the last page.

Is there a nice method of letting these marks disappear?

Everybody having solved this problem already?

One of the most frequently asked questions!

Each of the macro packages seems to define a macro which produces these
cut marks.  If you do not want them simply use the ".rm" request at the
top of your input to remove the offending macro.  For MAN, the macro is
called "}C"; for MM, it is called ")k".
