A group that does documentation within DEC (sorry, I don't remember
their name) uses a special mark-up language that then gets converted
into either TeX or runoff. Additionally, they have DVI filters for laser
printers, lineprinters and the like. I didn't ask any questions, but I
assume that they have a separate set of macros for the different output
devices as well.
Members of the Languages and Tools SIG of DECUS are applying pressure to
have these tools made available, preferably free, but as products if
neccessary. If you use DEC equipment, I encourage you to join DECUS,
then to put in a vote to the L&TSIG for these tools.
