         File: groff-bin_AA.tgz
       Author: (ported by) Parag Patel <parag@cgt.com>
      Release: 1.10
Compatibility: DR9-AA
     Location: contrib/editors
  Description: binaries for Gnu groff/tbl/eqn/etc, macros, and BSD man
        Notes: This is a quick port of the Gnu groff 1.10 to the BeOS, as well
               as a port of the OpenBSD "man" command.

Extract the archive under the "/boot" directory.  Everything will install into
/boot/local mimicing a Unix /usr/local tree.  The only exception is man.conf
which normally goes into /etc but is placed in /boot/local/lib for BeOS.

groff 1.10 ported quite easily with no changes to the sources.  Some minor
makefile and configure command tweaks, plus a working "cxx" script to compile
C++ files named "foo.C", and things pretty much compiled right up.  Go to
the Gnu ftp site to get the sources, or drop me a note if you want mine.

Getting openbsd's man to run was another set of headaches, involving throwing
together a variety of library routines to mimic those in BSD.  (I really should
just port the entire set of BSD libraries one of these days.)
