I just today heard (from Sam Wong@Sun (sp?)) that the current version of
TransScript (2.0) that Sun supports will not run when you upgrade
to SunOS 4.0.

You need Sun TranScript 2.1. A Beta version will be available in July.
The release notes state that TranScript 2.0 will work in SunOS 4.0.
My contact @ Sun tells me this is a printing error.

Apparently Sun has made some changes to troff, to support wider pages
(allowing TranScript to work in landscape mode).  The default font
widths have been modified for better PostScript support. (So you can
type "troff -t |lpr -Premote -t" without having TransScript
installed).  In addition, some changes were made with the eqn package
to better support the "natural" PostScript symbols. 
(Sorry for the vagueness. My release notes are currently a mile from here.)

We are doing our first SunOS 4.0 installation today, and haven't
experienced this first hand. I thought Youse Net People may want to
know this before you take the plunge into SunOS 4.0. :-(

I don't know if Adobe's 2.1 release will work with SunOS 4.0.
If someone has hacked the sources, could you let me know?
(It may be time for a quick order to Elan for ditroff :-)

Someone please tell me I am wrong........
