With PC-AT Xenix 1.0, when I use the command
tbl -TX ymodem.tmi|nroff -mm|col|head -23 >/dev/color&
on the following:
.FG "Header Information used by YMODEM Implementations"
.TS
allbox;
c c c c c c c
l l l l l l l.
Program Name Length Date Mode S/N 1k Blocks
Unix rb/sb yes yes yes yes no yes
VMS rb/sb yes yes no no no yes
Pro-YAM yes yes yes no yes yes
cp/M YAM yes no no no no yes
MODEM76 yes no no no no no
.TE
I get the expected table within a grid. However, when I include this
within a larger mm document with the sequence:
mm -t -c -rB1 -rO0 -rW74 yproto.mm >ymodem.doc
.DF CB
.so ymodem.tmi
.DE
The same file isn't set up as a table (allbox, etc. appear in the output).
Am I doing something wrong or is this Xenix bug number 62?
