+Collection of papers on troff and its companions
+------------------------------------------------
+Following is a collection based on
+[troff.org/papers](https://www.troff.org/papers.html). However, I found that
+much of the links referenced from that site are dead. I have instead downloaded
+and compiled pdfs from archive.org. Much of the material available was written
+at Bell Labs. The CSTR documents below refer to 'Computer Science Technical
+Reports', a Bell Labs internal numbering system used in the past.
