There is a bug in the Nroff Driver table maker I recently posted. It does not handle zero-width characters properly, and if your nroff text source contains a zero-width character, it is likely that strange things will be output. This will be fixed soon. I will be re-posting the entire package for the following reasons: 1) Several changes have been made to the table.c program, including separating the tabfile source out, and using #include instead. Diffs would be very large. 2) A Makefile has been made. 3) The charlist file which lists the characters in the tabfile was substantially garbled, and a clean, more complete one will be included. 4) If I can get author's permission, I will also post a de-compiler (takes a compiled tabfile, and creates the source for it - nifty!) Note that all this stuff is USG, not Berkeley. Looks like Berkeley has quite a different tab file format. -- -Bruce Townsend Voice Processing Applications, Bell-Northern Research, Ottawa, Ontario.
