Hi,
I went back to a very old document using troff and MM. It is a tutorial
on using troff at the macro package level without needing to know much
about the low level troff. I was contemplating updating it and putting it
out there.
I am trying to use a display with fill mode on, i.e.
.DS 1 1
The left margin is indented slightly. Unfortunately, the right margin
is not shrunk by the same amount with groff_mm.
I know that the original MM package handled it flawlessly.
Does anybody have a fix for this or do I need to sort out the bug?
Regards - Damian
