Is this a troff, groff, TeX, or nroff file?
I am a Windows user that is trying to use a Signetics 2650 Cross-assembler. The assembler (Frankenstein) was written in the 1980's, and the docs are written in troff, or groff (I THINK). I'm not sure (and it doesn't say). First, how do I correctly identify the file, and then, how do I read it in Windows? I downloaded a version of troff (and groff) for win32, but I'm not convinced I'm using the software correctly.
An example of the file follows this message (can anyone explain to me how I can view it as a pdf, ps, or even plain vanilla ASCII?)
