I have been trying to get gftodvi up on my Xenix 2.3.2 machine here
with little success...

Web2c just said "Syntax error. GFtoDVI not in symbol table". I looked
at the source but it was not apparent where I had to go to fix it...

I finally got the p2c pascal translator to translate the generated
gftodvi.p file and compile it but it complains with "Note: Discovered
too late that tfmfile should be buffered". It translates the file,
however, and then gives me lots of error messages about tfmfile if I
go ahead and try to compile it.

By the way: compared to the web2c stuff, p2c is a far superior Pascal
translator, it seems to me.

Anyways, anyone got any ideas? Anyone have gftodvi up on their Xenix
system (or System V system?).
