My apologies if this question has been raised fairly recently, but as
a fairly new MAC user, I have not been scanning this newsgroup for
long.

I am trying to find whether there is any software available for easing
the task of converting troff/MS source files (in ASCII) on UNIX for
subsequent use as input to WORD on MAC. For example, has anyone
produced a program, for UNIX or a MAC, to convert troff/MS source
files into (even an approximation to) the RTF format that WORD
accepts?

Replies by direct email please. If the response is sufficient to merit
it, I will summarize the results to the net.
