My failing for not checking this site.
Anyway: there are three other files in that v7man/msmacros directory.
WWW links to them are missing.
Use this URL (which I, myself, had discovered, bookmarked, and posted to
this list, and then didn't bother to use):
http://www.kohala.com/start/troff
This drops you into an ftp like directory listing.
Follow the directory entries: v7man, msmacros.
You will now see files: ms, msmacros.bun, msmacros.ps, refcard.
I downloaded them all. (19 KB - 57 KB each)
.ps: I haven't viewed yet.
.bun: I haven't a clue what that is. Anybody?
ms & refcard: I ran them through Groff 1.15 with -Thtml. Not perfect.
Running them with -Tascii is worse. Both Types give errors on both files.
If someone can figure out the correct groff 1.15 command line for either
or both Types, I would sure appreciate it.
And thanks, Kurt, for the tip. We should mirror all that stuff.
webget, that's what we need to use.
