  15. I am looking for a WordPerfect to troff translator.
  16.  
  17. I was just writing up another man page and I thought all of a sudden,
  18. why can't I just do this in WordPerfect, and save the file as text,
  19. then rename it man_page.1 .   Well, as you might guess this idea
  20. did not play well with my superiors.  But this does not rule
  21. out the possibility entirely.  If I could find a WordPerfect to
  22. troff translator, I could still write man pages in WordPerfect
  23. and produce the troff files which my superiors request.
