Has anyone encountered and fixed the following bugs (problems)
1.
when using the .tc command either there is no output at all or the tab
character is changed to something else on outout, eg .tc \(ul causes
\(*i to be output as the running character.
2.
When trying to build a DESC for a device with different resolutions in the
vertical and horizontal directions, one uses a res of the leat common
multiple, setting hor and vert to values other than 1 ostensibly to get
correct minimum movements. However we find that after words, the horizontal
movements are other than multiples of hor.

I will post solutions that I receive
