Fine if you're running in Unix with the text-processing component available.
Any help for those of us running under ancient (Version 7 and below) Unixes;
Xenix; or elvis for DOS.  In the first two cases the run-time system was
sold without the text-processing system, meaning no ?roff, no ctr, etc.  In
the latter, you have to have a DOS utility (which I haven't).
