I'm experiencing a weird bug using .nm and tbl. If there is a single
call to .nm which has at least 1 argument, all rows in tbl get numbered,
even after .nm is reset. I attached a minimal test. Please tell me if I
got something wrong.
Thanks in advance,
Olle Lögdahl

UTP strongly hints that the -ms macros have the end-of-input trap .em pre-set
to a defined macro called .EM, with the implication that if the user wants to
affect end-of-input behavior they can append or prepend to this macro rather
than messing with .em directly. However groff's s.tmac sets its

Hello,
I'm working on installing computer modern font to groff. I can almost
get it to work. The only issue I'm having is supporting 'åäö' (i believe
all latin1 chars). When comparing my generated dit-file with the one
existing for TimesR, I see I'm missing a charset definition for ':o'

That might be a good idea, especially since you desire it for the 1.23.0
