Can anybody tell me what the format of the terminal description
files (tab files) in /usr/lib/term is?  It's nice that they built
that kind of configurability into nroff, but they didn't provide
any documentation (at least, I don't have any) on how to define
your own.  It would be nice if nroff used termcap (light bulb,
anyone?), but I realize that nroff predates termcap by a good
long stretch.

Thanks in advance
