More stuff for groff
====================
win32
-----
Here two ports using the gcc compiler and other GNU tools:
Thomer M. Gil <tmgil@cs.vu.nl>:
http://www.cs.vu.nl/~tmgil/misc/wingroff.html
Kees Zeelenberg <c.zeelenberg@hccnet.nl>:
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/
cygwin/porters/Zeelenberg_Kees/B20/index.html
dos
---
Binaries for Eli Zaretskii's port using the djgpp compiler
are available from
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/gro*b.zip
and its mirrors; for installation details please read `arch/djgpp/README'.
grap
----
An implementation of Kernighan & Bentley's grap language for typesetting
graphs. Written by Ted Faber <faber@lunabase.org>. The actual version
can be found at
http://www.lunabase.org/~faber/Vault/software/grap/
plot2dev
--------
This utility program can convert plot graphics to either pic or gremlin
files. It has been written by Richard Murphey <richard-murphey@rice.edu>
and Daniel Senderowicz <daniel@synchrods.com> (who has added the gremlin
driver). The actual version can be found as
ftp://ftp.ffii.org/pub/groff/plot2dev-x.x.tar.gz
troffcvt
--------
From the web page:
troffcvt is a translator that turns troff input into a form that can be
more easily processed. The troffcvt distribution comes with
postprocessors that turn troffcvt into various destination formats such
as HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), RTF (Rich Text Format) or plain
text.
Note that you need a lot of additional packages to compile troffcvt;
everything is available from
http://www.primate.wisc.edu/software/troffcvt/
unroff
______
From the README file:
Unroff is a Scheme-based, programmable, extensible troff translator with
a back-end for the Hypertext Markup Language. Unroff is free software
and is distributed both as source and as precompiled binaries.
http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~net/unroff/unroff.html
You need als Elk, the Scheme based Extension Language Kit, which is
available from
http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~net/elk
miscellaneous
-------------
. Dr. Robert Hermann's groff gems are available from
http://www.eas.slu.edu/People/RBHerrmann/GROFF/index.html
At present there are examples for
o creating business cards
o using groff to make large format posters for presentations
. Robert Marks's collection of useful macros and scripts is available from
http://www.agsm.edu.au/~bobm/odds+ends/scripts.html
Description:
o `polish': Is a sed (= the Unix stream editor) script that does many
things to ASCII text. Amongst other things, it breaks lines at new
sentences, reduces upper-case acronyms by one point size, adds
diacriticals, changes simple quotes into smart quotes, and makes a few
simple grammar checks. The best way to see what it does is to run it as
a sed script file (or files) on a text file and then compare the output
file with the original.
o `DropCaps' is a troff script which replaces the initial letters of
paragraphs immediately after H1 and H2 headings with drop-capitals of
specified point size, and automatically flows the text around the new
drop cap.
o `AJM Header' is a set of troff macros used in production of the
Australian Journal of Management. They use the Memorandum Macros (mm)
of AT&T, and so should be invoked with the UNIX troff -mm flag; they
should also work with the GNU troff -mm flag.
. Thomas Baruchel <baruchel@libertysurf.fr> has developed Meta-tbl, a tbl
postprocessor to manipulate table cells (like adding gray shades). The
latest version can be found at
http://perso.libertysurf.fr/baruchel/
