I am one of those who still uses troff for much of what I do and suddenly found
myself without diffmk(1) when I needed. I had been running on the rash
assumption that all that stuff was still out there. But the best I could do
was come up with a diffmk.p , written in perl by Randal L. Schwartz @
Stonehenge (aka merlyn) in 1989. It did not work out of the box, but with a
minor perl hack (and I am _not_ a user of perl) it now serves my need.
Would the Groff group like to have it? How do I do that?
Many thanks to those who have been keeping troff and it's cousins alive. It is
what I know in my bones, since I first started using it in 1971. I never got
over the idea that sometimes I just want to compute my documents and I
_never_ want to lose the words!
