GROFF VERSION:
[The version of groff you are using.  For example, `1.05']
1.16.1, latest CVS version as of 25 Jan 2001

MACHINE:
[The machine you are using.  For example, `Sun SPARCstation 2']
Sun Ultra10

OS:
[The operating system you are using.  For example, `SunOS 4.1.1']
Solaris 8 10/00

COMPILER:
[The compiler you are used to compile groff.  For example, `g++ 1.40.3']
gcc-2.95.2

INPUT FILES:
[Include all the files necessary to reproduce the problem that are not
part of the standard groff distribution.  This includes font
description files, DESC files and macro files (with the exception of
the -ms and -mm macros: we have them).  Send them as a shell archive or
as a uuencoded, compressed tar file.

See my BUG-REPORT of 2001_01_17 for example code.

It's easier for us if you can provide an example that doesn't depend on
any macro package, but obviously if you're reporting a problem with a
macro package that won't be possible.  Also a short example is more
convenient than a long one, but don't worry if you can't find a short
example.  Don't say something like ``any file that X'': Always send a
definite example.]

COMMAND LINE:
[The command line that we should run in order to observe the bug.  For
example, `gtroff -Tps bug.tr'.  If the command line uses -ms or -mm,
say whether these refer to the groff versions or the Unix versions of
the macros.]

groff -wall -R -s -e -t -mgs -Thtml markets00_highres > markets00_highres.html

DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:
[What goes wrong when that command line is run?  For example, `gtroff
gets a segmentation fault', or `The output looks bad because the bar
over the x is too long and is too far over to the left.'  If you get an
error message, include it here without modification: Don't edit it to
make it more readable.]

Using the example dir ingber_test_grohtml/ I sent previously, in the build
dir groff, test-groff got a long ways before bombing with a core file.

After I installed this latest CVS version, there still is an install
problem:

I use
groff -wall -R -s -e -t -mgs -Thtml markets00_highres > markets00_highres.html
and still get
groff: couldn't exec pre-grohtml: No such file or directory
so in /usr/local/bin, I did
ln -s gpre-grohtml pre-grohtml
and still get
pre-grohtml:gtroff:0: can't open `gtroff': No such file or directory

Thanks.

Lester

SUGGESTED FIX [optional]:
[If you can suggest a fix for the problem, include a context diff here. 
But don't delay sending in a bug report in the hope of finding a fix. 
Guesses about the cause of the bug are not usually helpful.]
