I'm having problems getting the guidebook through nroff. The command line nroff -mn Guidebook.mn >Guidebook produces the message "can't open /usr/lib/tmacs/tmac.n". I presume this means that we don't have the appropriate macro file for the Guidebook. Does anyone have this file, and if so, could they let me have a copy ? Many thanks in advance Bob.

It turns out that the macro file (tmac.n) is distributed with the news 2.11 source (B-News). You should be able to find it locally, but if you don't, send me a note and I will mail it to you. Also, the command in the Makefile should be: tbl Guidebook.mn | nroff -mn | col >Guidebook -- Remember Tiananmen Square. | David Messer dave@Lynx.MN.Org -or- | Lynx Data Systems ...!bungia!viper!dave
