Recently I was searching Simtel20 for a PC compatible NROFF utility.

PCROFF.arc was a variation of a formatter that probably hasn't been used
on a unix box for 10 years (basic roff, I belive)

NROSRC.arc seems to be just the animal I need.  But it is shipped in source 
only.  For the life of me I cannot figure out why.  PC's are not like UNIX 
boxes, all PC's use the same executables, so shipping only sources seems silly.

Back to the point.  I need a reference to the Computer Innovations 2.00
compiler. (C, I belive)  Or an already compiled NROFF formatter, Or a gracious
soul with the CI2.00 compiler that would be willing to compile the program for
me.

Thanks
