[net.unix-wizards] landscape mode for DITROFF

We are using DITROFF to drive a Versatec, V-80, and would like
to do landscape mode (short axis of paper pointed up) formatting.
This, I believe, only requires changes to dvar, the output
filter which drives the V-80.

Does anyone have such a modified dvar that we could get ahold of?

Also, does anyone have a dterm (the DITROFF, terminal output filter)
which will drive a tektronix (or most any other graphics) terminal?


	Thanks, Bill [johnston@lbl-csam]

There is supposed to be a Tektronix device interpreter for TiTroff
in the Documenters Workbench portion of your UNIX System V Release 2
upgrade.

An output filter for the Tektronix 4014 was also available on the
DITroff distribution tape.  It was in "./troff/tc.c"; I think the
makefile knew how to generate it.
