The one to read is Nroff/Troff User's Manual. CSTR #54, J. F. Ossanna, Bell Labs, 1976. Revised by Brian Kernighan, 1992. available at https://www.troff.org/54.pdf > I prefer documents, which do not include specialities of special > implementations, since they will not work with other implementations > als long these enhancements are not common to all newer > implementations If a troff doesn't handle what's in CSTR #54 then it arguably isn't troff. -- Cheers, Ralph.
