I'm afraid I am missing some basic information here.
I even managed to crash groff (core dump) with longer input files to be

A super-duper fix would support filling of closed curves made
of lines, splines and arcs.
In any event, it is wrong to silently ignore "fill".

o use them?
What would be the recommended names for the four versions, i.e.
normal, emboldened, italicized, and enboldened-italicized? if one
still wanted one or two character font names?
Thanks - Damian

My workaround these issues, besides trial and error, was to inspect the

information were found in the manual.
Thanks a lot, and best regards!

ginally, I had looked to R, starting with raku, as it has some very
interesting elements quite useful for the majority of my tasks:
natural-language parsing and phrase comparisons in a mix of languages.
Best regards,
Oliver.
