That's a good idea. It's actually possible to get everything done
with the quite limited `ash' builtins and `sed', you won't need awk
nor grep. Feel free to take over from the `groffer' script whatever
you need; for example, the grog option parsing will need a major boost.
But these thing have time after the release.
