Hi This package contains troff sources corresponding to the NG files in the Nanforum Toolkit v 2.0 library. You can print these by running troff on most any unix system (each installation has its own flavor of troff). Do not use a macro package, these files are "raw" troff sources. Example: ptroff -P apple-lw xxx.tr They work reasonably well for nroff also if you dont have a troff device at your site. These files were generated using a program which decodes .ng files, and translates it into troff. Sometimes the translation isn't perfect, especially with tables, and non-ascii characters, but it is 99% OK. Beats not having any hardcopy. The 18 files (1-18).tr correspond to the 18 .ngo files that make up the documentation, I'll call these chapters. The file merged.tr is just the topics of each chapter. All 18 chapters are summarized in this file, one page per chapter. This is like a table of contents. The file xrefs.tr is a sorted list of all the functions, referencing which chapter contains it. This is like an index. All the files in this zoo are in unix text format (ie, only control-J at ends of lines). To translate these into msdos format, add a control-M before every control-J (I think there may be PD programs that do this trivial thing). Why unix text format?... because I suspect most people will be running unix "troff" and "nroff" on these files. Of course there may be some PC implementations of troff and nroff, I dont know of any. THE FILES CONTAINED IN THIS ARCHIVE ARE DERIVED FROM THE DOCUMENTATION IN THE NANFORUM TOOLKIT VERSION 2.0 WHICH IS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. THIS ARCHIVE AND ALL FILES WITHIN THIS ARCHIVE MAY BE FREELY DISTRIBUTED AND USED SUBJECT TO THE TERMS IN THE NANFOR.LIB PUBLIC DOMAIN STATEMENT. A COPY OF THAT STATEMENT IS IN THE TROFF FILE 15.TR. If you manage to print these, please drop me a line giving details on your system. This would help me design future stuff. Do not send money, dont sue me, and dont expect support. Good luck.
