A PD replacement for makedev is also available. One was posted a little
while back (to comp.sources.unix I believe). I have written one that
seems to work fine on our Sequent Balance 8000 (4.2bsd). The latest
release of Dynix included ditroff, but nothing to convert the output to
PostScript. We picked up a program called tpscript (new version has
just been posted to comp.sources.unix) and have been working our poor
LaserWriter to death ever since.
My only beef with ditroff is the limitation of ten fonts per device.
Considering tpscript adds second special font to handle the stuff not
found in the other special font, you can only use 8 of the other 12
fonts.
