This is the GNU groff document formatting system.
|
|
The version number is given in the file VERSION.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Included in this release are implementations of troff, pic, eqn, tbl, refer,
|
|
the -man macros and the -ms macros, and drivers for PostScript, TeX dvi
|
|
format, HP LaserJet 4 printers, HTML format (still alpha), and
|
|
typewriter-like devices.
|
|
Also included is a modified version of the Berkeley -me macros, an enhanced
|
|
version of the X11 xditview previewer, and an implementation of the -mm
|
|
macros contributed by
|
|
.MAILTO jh@axis.se "J\(:orgen H\(:agg" .
|
|
.LP
|
|
See the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
|
|
You will require a C++ compiler.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The file NEWS describes recent user-visible changes to groff.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Groff is free software.
|
|
See the file COPYING for copying permission.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The file PROBLEMS describes various problems that have been encountered in
|
|
compiling, installing, and running groff.
|
|
.LP
|
|
For the moment, the documentation assumes that you are already familiar with
|
|
the Unix versions of troff, -man, -ms and the preprocessors.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The most recent released version of groff is always available by anonymous
|
|
ftp from ftp.gnu.org in the directory pub/gnu/groff.
|
|
.LP
|
|
A CVS repository is now available, containing the current development
|
|
version of groff.
|
|
You can access it with the commands:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fC
|
|
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.ffii.org:/var/cvs
|
|
cvs login
|
|
cvs -z9 co groff
|
|
\fR
|
|
.fi
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
(if the prompt for the password appears, just press the enter key).
|
|
After a successful login you no longer need the first two commands; an
|
|
update of a checked out repository should be done with:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS
|
|
\fC
|
|
cvs -z9 update -dP
|
|
\fR
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Please read the info pages of cvs for further details.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Alternatively, you can download snapshots (which are updated twice a day)
|
|
from
|
|
.URL here ftp://ftp.ffii.org/pub/groff/devel/groff-current.tar.gz
|
|
or a diff file relative to the latest official groff release as:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS
|
|
\fC
|
|

Please report bugs using the form in the file BUG-REPORT; the idea of this
|
|
is to make sure that FSF has all the information it needs to fix the bug.
|
|
At the very least, read the BUG-REPORT form and make sure that you supply
|
|
all the information that it asks for.
|
|
Even if you are not sure that something is a bug, report it using
|
|
BUG-REPORT: this will enable us to determine whether it really is a bug or
|
|
not.
|

Three mailing lists are available:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fC
|
|
bug-groff@gnu.org for reporting bugs
|
|
groff@gnu.org for general discussion of groff
|
|
groff-commit@ffii.org a read-only list showing logs of
|
|
commitments to the CVS repository
|
