Hi.  A few months ago, someone in this newsgroup mentioned an article written
in the CACM or some similar journal, describing how it is possible, allbeit
slow, to perform a sort operation using diversions in nroff.  I find myself
needing this article now, but cannot find it anywhere, or the reference to it.
Could someone please E-mail this information to me.  Thanks in advance.
