Maybe turn the groff into something else, (latex, html ) then turn that
into ms-word. |

I've been trying with groff_html, to openoffice and then getting
openoffice to save in MS-Word.
I don't know groff or latex. I like plain text. But I think I read
somewhere that latex to msword works pretty well. Can you get latex from
groff?
That is after you calm down..... |

Hhehehe thanks!
Yea, plain text is best when it will work. (and it's pretty easy to go
from 'roff to text, afterall, it /is/ text)
That was one of the avenues I looked into, groff can't (as far as I know) go to
TeX, but it can go to DVI (the same intermediate format of TeX based systems)
so, one would imagine, you could go from DVI to ms-word.
I can't find anything to go from DVI to MS-Word.
Unfortunately, searching is sub-optimal, DVI is also a standard for video
hardware.
