> We are investigating having ATK print direct to Postscript, to relieve
the dependence on troff/groff and psdit.


Aren't these dependencies necessary to support ATK's "preview"?  

In the long run, I'd think a device-independent troff generator would be
more useful and less error prone than a direct ATK-->Postscript program.
 

Just a thought...

Our interpreter version is 52.3.
