The paper "MM - Memorandum Macros" by D. W. Smith, J. R. Mashey, E. C.
Pariser, and N. W. Smith, AT&T Bell Laboratories, June 1980 does not seem
to be available in PDF or Postscript on the Internet with a license that
allows legal copying. However, the Documenter's Workbench version of the
documentation, which is derived from that paper *is* available in source
form here <https://github.com/n-t-roff/DWB3.3>, under the Eclipse Public
License.
I built the document from source some time ago, and recently put the PDF up
on my blog (direct link to PDF
<https://tkurtbond.github.io/troff/mm-all.pdf>) , with a post
<https://tkurtbond.github.io/posts/2021/07/15/troff-memorandum-macros-documentation/>
about it. I think this is useful since it provides a more "user guide"
approach to learning MM; groff_mm(7), while an admirable and complete
reference is not easy to learn MM from, in my opinion.
