One of my reviewers always prefer to get documents double spaced.
How do you do this in troff? I tried .v and .vs (with 2, 12pts and 24pts
arguments) as implied by Ossanna and Kernighan's Troff manual...

I think that, if you're using -ms, the value probably gets reset.
Try setting VS too. E.g. .nr VS 24.

Greg,
".nr VS 24" worked like a charm. Thanks!
