The distributed troff support from qms contains a hint that it is possible to access the ROM fonts, but the actual goodies and detailed instructions are missing. I have learned the secret, and am willing to share this info. with any interested party. In particular I can offer pseudo step-by-step instructions and a small C program that makes font headers. Reply directly if interested. 2. I can't get the troff .bd (artificial bold) command to work on the qms. It seems to generate much verbiage from qcat, i.e. its not ignored, but I don't get any emboldening. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please reply directly. Kaare Christian uucp:cmcl2!rna!kc
