Is there any interest in forming a net.ditroff group (or possibly
net.usoft.ditroff)? For those of us actually trying to make ditroff
work on a variety of machines (including those that supposedly work
at Bell Labs), a forum for exchanging information would be helpful.
Even if you're not interested in such a group, but are working with
ditroff or writing ditroff filters for new devices (has anyone other
than Brian actually written a new filter in a couple of evenings?),
I'd be interested in hearing from you, especially people that have
implemented graphics functions (for supporting pic, ideal, and eqn)
for devices that don't directly support graphics. Lastly, does anyone
else have a Merganthaler Linotron 202 typesetter and a ditroff filter
that will work correctly with eqn?
