Thanks, Luis, Brian. This is the sort of testimony I’m look‐ ing for. >I believe mom is a good choice for starting out with groff >since both the documentation and the macros themselves are >newbie friendly.
Thanks Peter. I think mom may be in the future the LaTeX of groff (without waste 1G of HD), but for now I prefer play with the gear, nuts and bolts and keep me near the groff’s bases to learn the system and who knows, maybe in the future I will be able to give you a hand. So maybe I’ll try ms, I find it more simple (the groff_ms man page show me in a cou‐ ple of lines all the basic things I want to do in a simple way), and like Ralph suggests, extend it with my own macros to fill my needs. I find groff awesome and I can’t believe it fits in 10M. I feel all the system’s potential, so while I’m learning I would like to know the experiences of users writing science texts, novels, poetry and other works using this packages, and the main problems they encoun‐ tered. This could help me to resolve my personal "TeX vs Groff" advantages and disadvantages dilemma (And other peo‐ ple reading the mailing list too). Sorry for my English, and thanks to all.
