Subject: [9fans] MetaPost and troff
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2010 10:59:39 +0100	[thread overview]

Hello,

Since I'm beginning (when I have small slots of time) the integration of
MetaPost to kerTeX, I've just discovered that MetaPost could be used not
only with TeX, but also with troff. (Well, John Hobby is a member of
Bell Labs, so it should not have been a surprise.)

Obviously, even if the package is called kerTeX, I will _keep_ the
troff hability. (This means that mp(1) and dvips(1) can be used
also by people using troff(1) as their main typesetting system).
