Does anyone know if somebody has made the changes to ditroff that are
necessary to get it to format and print Postscript *landscape*
documents.

We don't want to just rotate character oriented output.  We can already
do that with, e.g., 'nroff ... | enscript -r'.  We're looking for a few
good mods to ditroff (or something) such that the formatting is done for
the landscape page image -- like Elan's 'eroff -l'.

Any help you can provide would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
