I'm afraid I don't understand what you're asking. What isn't working with the -man macros, and what does it have to do with the tbl pre-processor? Tell us the effect you're trying to achieve and how you're trying to do it. A snippet of code would help, too. That should give us enough to be able to help you. FWIW, if you're not familiar with it, the troff.org web site <http://troff.org/papers.html> has lots of information that can be a real help. --Dale -- The Dilettante's Version of the Three Laws of Thermodynamics: One: You Can't Win.
