People;

Can anyone direct me to a source for a DOS implementation of the UNIX
text processing facilities troff, nroff, tbl, and exp?  I need them
pretty badly, so non-public-domain software is certainly OK.  I've
looked at the roff on simtel20, and it doesn't do enough (also doesn't
have tbl or exp).  I'd like to be able to print on two different hard-
copy devices:  a HP LaserJet II and an Epson LQ2500 (24 pin).  I
believe this has been discussed within the last 6 months...but I
absolutely cannot find any references.  Sorry if I'm flogging a dead
horse!

I read this group, but have difficulty keeping up with the volume. (!)
If responses could be emailed to me, I will certainly summarize.

Thank you!
Dave
