Forgive me if this has been asked many times before...

If I have my own troff macro, but am unable to place it into
/usr/lib/tmac/tmac.name due to permission problems, how do I
tell troff to use *my* macro file?  I could include my macro
file at the top of every troff file that I use it with, but
I am looking for a command line option.

Thanks for any hints, pointers, answers.  Please email and if
there is enough interest I will summarize.

P.S.  Yes, I have read the manuals...
