+ Groff Bug Report
+
+Please read the PROBLEMS file before sending in a bug report.
+
+Please fill in all fields, even if you think they are not relevant.
+
+Please delete the text in brackets before sending it in.
+
+Please report separate bugs separately.
+
+Send the completed form to bug-groff@gnu.org
+
+GROFF VERSION:
+[The version of groff you are using. For example, `1.05']
+
+MACHINE:
+[The machine you are using. For example, `Sun SPARCstation 2']
+
+OS:
+[The operating system you are using. For example, `SunOS 4.1.1']
+
+COMPILER:
+[The compiler you are used to compile groff. For example, `g++ 1.40.3']
+
+INPUT FILES:
+[Include all the files necessary to reproduce the problem that are not
+part of the standard groff distribution. This includes font
+description files, DESC files and macro files (with the exception of
+the -ms and -mm macros: we have them). Send them as a shell archive
+or as a uuencoded, compressed tar file.
+
+It's easier for us if you can provide an example that doesn't depend
+on any macro package, but obviously if you're reporting a problem with
+a macro package that won't be possible. Also a short example is more
+convenient than a long one, but don't worry if you can't find a short
+example. Don't say something like ``any file that X'': Always send a
+definite example.]
+
+COMMAND LINE:
+[The command line that we should run in order to observe the bug. For
+example, `gtroff -Tps bug.tr'. If the command line uses -ms or -mm,
+say whether these refer to the groff versions or the Unix versions of
+the macros.]
+
+DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:
+[What goes wrong when that command line is run? For example, `gtroff
+gets a segmentation fault', or `The output looks bad because the bar
+over the x is too long and is too far over to the left.' If you get
+an error message, include it here without modification: Don't edit it
+to make it more readable.]
+
+SUGGESTED FIX [optional]:
+[If you can suggest a fix for the problem, include a context diff
+here. But don't delay sending in a bug report in the hope of finding
+a fix. Guesses about the cause of the bug are not usually helpful.]
