[comp.os.minix] NRO

Mark Becker just sent me fixes to nro to make it work.  I tried them and
indeed it works, and can format its own manual.  Good work Mark!

I asked him to post the cdiffs to the net.

The program is not a full nroff, but that fact that it works at all is a
start.

I will include it as a permanent part of MINIX.  Improvements are welcome
(in particular, making it accept the standard nroff input language).

As regards the fixed "nro" nroff subset...

Now, can somebody please reformat the "helpfile" for use with "nro"
and repost it?
