Several weeks ago I requested the patches to troff that allowed it to include bit maps (rasters). Well, I am disappointed because the ONLY response I got was from someone asking me for a copy of what I reseived/learned. As a result, I am going to ask all of you nice.helpful.folks :^) again. It is my understanding that a while back (6-12 months ago) these patches were posted to the net. Well, I want them, BADLY. A lot of people, including myself, are writing papers with itroff that include graphs/pictures. These graphs are in bitmap form. Currently we are using the old fashion 'cut-and-paste' method to get these graphs in the document (uuugly). Are options are to go out and but something like EROFF or DEVPS. These cost $$$$$$$. If we can get something to work without paying a lot of dollars that would be great. Thanks in advance for all of the nice.helpful comments/suggestions that I know everyone will be sending me. -- @__________@ W.
