	(I asked approximately the same thing on net.wanted and got
	a deafening silence.  Maybe somebody in this group can help.)
	
	I am trying to configure nroff for a Juki 6100 daisy-wheel
	printer, but I do not have all of the source for nroff.  In
	particular n6.c and n10.c are missing and they seem to be the
	important parts for understanding the drive table defined in
	tw.h.  I understand the ints "bset" and "breset" and I can guess
	at the strings hlr, hlf, flr, bdon, bdoff.  What about all those
	other ints and the "char *zzz;"?
	
	Once I know what all the variables are, do I just create a
	"tabjuki.c" which defines a struct and compile it, drop the ".o"
	from the object filename and mv it to /usr/lib/term?

	Much (many?) thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
