Hello-

  I have finally gotten over my 'fear' of xroff and have been using it, as
well as tbl, to create my resume and a work schedule (how do you shade in
grid boxes or center names in the boxes?).

  Anyway, are there any ftp sites where I can pick up more fonts for xroff
(where did xroff come from anyway?)?  We currently have Roman, Italics,
Sans Serif, and Bold Roman.  What about macro packages (I am not yet ready
to write my own)?  Is there a place where I can ftp them?

  And finally, I just started reading this group.  Is TeX public domain
software?  If so, where can I get it?

  Please E-MAIL your responses TO THIS ADDRESS: ecker@b.scs.uiuc.edu
                               OR THIS ONE: jreg6473@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu

  And THANKS!


--Ken
