We have just installed the Anrew toolkit at out site and are very
impressed by the ez editor and help system.  However, printing appears
to require ditroff to work properly.  Is the source or binary for
a Sun sparc station available anywhere?

The following packages allow printing with ATK.

No endorsement of the following products or organizations is implied. 
We routinely use transcript, and we have successfully used groff
compiled both with gcc 2.2.2 (on an HP 9000/720) and with AT&T cfront
2.1 (on an RS/6000).

From the ATK FAQ:
