meillo@147 2 .P
meillo@147 3 This document was typeset with the
meillo@147 4 .I troff
meillo@147 5 document preparation system on Unix.
meillo@147 6 After having typset my diploma thesis with Latex, the choice for
meillo@147 7 troff was similar to prefering MH over mutt.
meillo@147 8 .P
meillo@147 9 I used the troff implementation of the Heirloom doctools,
meillo@147 10 and built upon the
meillo@147 11 .I ms
meillo@147 12 macro package.
meillo@147 13 To meet my personal wishes, I added further macros and replaced
meillo@147 14 clumpsy parts of ms.
meillo@147 15 My own macro code comprises about 400 lines.
meillo@147 16 Unfortunately, I must admit that the troff sources are not perfectly
meillo@147 17 portable as I accessed Heirloom troff extensions and ms internals,
meillo@147 18 occasionally.
meillo@147 19 .P
meillo@147 20 My troff setup was inspired and guided by
meillo@147 21 Dougherty and O'Reilly's
meillo@147 22 .I "UNIX Text Processing
meillo@147 23 and by chapter seven of Bourne's
meillo@147 24 .I "The UNIX System" .
meillo@147 25 The
meillo@147 26 .I "Nroff/Troff User's Manual
meillo@147 27 added definitive answers.

meillo@147 29 The typesetting command line read something like:
meillo@147 30 .VS
