Our ditroff package runs on the Pyramid.  You're right about the stock AT&T
version not working -- we had to make numerous changes due to the
Pyramid's odd architecture.

The package EROFF, includes enhanced (and supported!) versions
of the DWB 2.0 tools diTROFF, NROFF, PIC, EQN, TBL, GRAP, CHECKMM
and two laser drivers: for PostScript and LaserJet printers.  A rough draft
screen previewer is also included.
