We have some in-house  applications and we would like to write         
man pages for them so that these man pages look just like the 
standard UNIX man pages (describing command line options, version 
information etc.) What is the best way to do this on an SGI,

1. If the system has nroff/troff ?
2. If the system does not have nroff/troff ?
