Archive-name: psroff2.0/patch.05
Submitted-by: clewis at ecicrl.uucp (Chris Lewis)

I got so much demand for it, I thought I'd better post this.
Sorry for the assortment of newsgroups, but several people don't receive
some of the relevant newsgroups (in fact, *I* don't get comp.sources.*
or alt.* either because of pocket constraints), so if you want to followup,
followup to comp.text...)

This is Patch 5 for psroff.  DO NOT apply this to the sources just
posted in alt.sources, for those sources have ALREADY had this patch
applied.

This is for those people who've picked up psroff 2.0 via anon ftp and
have been following patches 1 thru 4 in comp.sources.bugs and alt.sources.

    This is official patch 05 for Psroff 2.0.
    Do NOT apply this to sources retrieved from alt.sources (which
    is ALREADY at PL5)
    Please apply it by:
	cd <psroff source directory>
	patch -N -p < <this file>

      remove dependence on \g.  (which is supposed to return a code
      denoting the output format of a number register, and is usually
      used to determine whether a number register has ever been set)
+ 
+ ME macros don't seem to work:
+ 
+     A friend noted:
+ 
+     In order to make them useable, I had to modify them somewhat.  The
+     problem was with the following syntax:
+ 
+ 	.if t \
+ 	\{
+ 	.	zz
+ 	.\}
+ 
+     Our (Xenix) troff required the following instead:
+ 
+ 	.if t \{\
+ 	.	zz
+ 	.\}
+ 
+     This was required for all occurances of "\{".  It seems "\{" MUST
+     terminate a line, and MUST be followed by a "\<NEWLINE>".  Even a ".\{"
+     didn't help any.
  
  Everything okay, but some characters missing (or wrong) on output:
  (ditroff drivers may complain about characters not found)

  This is a formal release.  There are probably rough edges however,
  particularly with fine-tuning width tables for specific printers and
! some of the more esoteric ditroff configurations.
  
  I encourage people to experiment with psroff (particularly the configuration
  files) and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send me your changes so that I can
