In the last few issues of Dr. Dobbs Journal of Software Tools there has been
a series of columns describing an NROFF clone. It can be ordered from a
California publishing house and includes the complete source. The claim
is that it has full macro capability and comes with -ms.

I have not used the package but plan on getting it eventually. I hope
this helps.
