I have been asked to survey UNIX-based tools for the writer and I don't
know where to start.  Specific examples from the PC world have been cited
to me as models, including the Grammatik III style-checker, the ForComment
multi-reviewer markup tool, and assorted outliners, readability-level
testers, and the like.

My interest is in auxiliary tools of this nature for UNIX [Sun].  The 
basics of editing, formatting, and printing are not an issue.

I would very much appreciate email that points me toward review articles
or toward specific products.  I will send a summary to anyone who requests
it in their email.

Thanks for your time,
