You may also want to take a look at James Clark's ``groff'' in the GNU
archives at prep.ai.mit.edu.  Groff includes an implementation of
troff, pic, eqn, tbl, and the man macros and has drivers for
Postscript, TeX DVI, and typewriter-like devices.  Also included is a
modified version of the Berkeley me macros, and an enhanced version of
the X11R4 xditview.

It requires GNU's g++ 1.37.1 (available at the same location) or any
commercial C++ compiler implementing version 2.0 of the C++ language.

Works great!
