The System III and V nroffs simulate boldfacing by overstriking.  Has
anyone made any changes to the 4.1BSD nroff to get it to do the same
thing?  If so, could you please either send me the changes, or post them
to net.sources?

(If we had 4.2, we'd be running the S5 nroff using the BRL simulator,
but we don't, so we can't.  sigh.)

Thanks in advance,
