[comp.sources.wanted] Displaying troff output on sun

davidf@cs.hw.ac.uk (David.J.Ferbrache) (06/15/87)

Does anyone know of a program suitable for previewing a troff file
containing PICs and Tables on the graphics screen of a SUN workstation.
In my group much of our work involves the preparation of documents
which contain embedded pictures of some complexity, the laserwriter
and graphics printer costs of previewing such documents are considerable.

If you know of such a program please mail me details of the program,
availability and cost.
