I'm about to start trying to bring ditroff (vintage 1982) up on our
Suns. Actually, the README file calls the package "Typesetter
Independent TROFF," but I've always referred to it as "Device
Independent." In any case, the whole package (save ideal) has been
running fine on our 4.nBSD VAXes for years, but I'm sure there are a
number of null pointer bugs lurking in the code which will bite me on a
Sun. Has anyone flushed these problems from the code?

The official abbreviation seems to be "ditroff". They couldn't very well
call it "TIT-roff" :-) ....
