I have the following questions about (di)troff and eqn:

1.) When using eqn, an equation is sometimes broken at the end of a
    line!
    I.e. writing
    $y = x sup (a-b)$,
    I sometimes get something like (read ^ as "to the power of):
	     \  / -- \/ (a-|
	      \/  -- /\    |
	      /		   |
	     /		   |
    |
    |b)
    |
    (| is the margin)
2.) (di)troff only looks in the Roman font files for the special
    characters (like pi, ci, ...)
    If You take the 256 characters limit, subtract the 128 characters
    occupied with the ASCII character set, that leaves You 128 minus
    32 characters (0x80 to 0x9f) which are control characters with the
    8th bit set.
    But the special character set is abt. 110 characters in size, add
    the "Umlaut"s, we need in Germany (ae,oe,ue,Ae,Oe,Ue and ss),
    You break the space of 96 characters left.
    QUESTION: How do I convince (di)troff to get the special characters
    from the "special" font files?
3.) Does anybody have the bitmap for the "hands" (\(lh, \(rh) preferably
    for a HP-Laserjet in sizes 6,7,8,9,10,11,12,14,18,24,30 points?
