Does anyone have a workaround for drawing radicals in p9p eqn?  Currently it just produces the over bar not the 'check' shape.

thanks

About ten years ago I used the attached awk script to
correct the sqrt signs in a .ps file produced by p9p troff.
I do not remember much, but I ran ./sqrt.awk in.ps > out.ps.
Perhaps you can just try it. It is, sure, just a workaround.

Thanks. Just last night I gave up on p9p eqn and compiled
heirloom eqn.  But I still plan on trying your awk script as well
Thank you.

Perhaps, apart from heirloom, there is also another rewrite from the 'neat' family, neatroff. I would suggest having a look at that. There is also neateqn there.
