  The distinction between @code{TROFF} and @code{NROFF} is that
  @code{TROFF} was designed to drive a phototypesetter whereas
! @code{NROFF} was designed to produce essentially @sc{ascii} output for a
  character-based device similar to a teletypewriter (usually abbreviated
  to ``teletype'' or ``tty'').  Hence, @code{TROFF} supports much finer
  control over output positioning than does @code{NROFF} and can be seen

  this.  I have recently begun to add support for WoMan to use more of the

  Emacs provides an interface to detect automatically the format of a file
  and decode it when it is visited.  It is used primarily by the
  facilities for editing rich (i.e.@: formatted) text, as a way to store
! formatting information transparently as @sc{ascii} markup.  WoMan can in
  principle use this interface, but it must be configured explicitly.
  
  This use of WoMan does not seem to be particularly advantageous, so it
