I have a laser printer that does single sided only. Is there a 
simple way to get nroff to do double sided output. The idea is to
output all odd pages, reload the paper, and print the even pages. 
I remember that at one time someone had hacked up a program to 
take a already NROFFed file and shuffle it appropriately. I suppose you
could fudge the registers and page breaks but this looks fairly messy.

Thanx
