Re: [Groff] Does groff match my needs?

Consider that groff itself is somehow like plainTeX.  You may need a macro 
package for creating documents.  But traditional macro packages do (AFAIK) not 
provide TOC, index, cross references *compared to LaTeX*.  Up to now I did not 
test the MOM macros (http://www.schaffter.ca/mom/mom-01.html) but likely they 
have this functionality.  But it is also not hard do write a script (I suggest 
using perl) for that.

So either you use groff with MOM or you may need to write some simple 
scripts... (TOC itself actually doesn't need a script, the ".tm" request is 
sufficient).

OT question: What is your issue with LaTeX?
