Hi Carsten: [Sorry. didn't send to group on first try.] This is somewhat related. What is the canonical way to determine using generic troff commands that the troff being used is Heirloom troff, without regard to whether compatibility is off or on? (I used to test the number register .g to rule out groff, but apparently that is not correct anymore.) (This should ease testing with existing file bases.) Thanks,--d

That would indeed make sense. Unfortunately only Gunnar has access to the SourceForge CVS and web page. There is only read access to the CVS possible for others. The last change on the CVS repository had been on June 19, 2011. Gunnar has silently abondoned the project without prior notice and is not reachable since then. At the time when severe bugs had been found I tried to contact Gunnar but I got no answer. Later I also asked for access to the CVS or at least be able to place a notice at the web page, but again he didn't answer. The maintainer of the Mac OS X port (Stefan Tramm) finally did suggest to move the project to GitHub. There it is continued since August 2014. Carsten
