Yea, what ever happend to ptx(1):
gndrsh:root {1206}# man ptx
No manual entry for ptx
gndrsh:root {1207}# which ptx
/usr/bin/ptx
gndrsh:root {1208}#
Hummm.. part of groff... probably info file documents, yep there it is.
What would it take to get this thing building the Permuted Index again?
cd /usr/share/man/man7; zcat *.gz | nroff -mandoc | col -b | ptx | more
makes for some interesting reading :-).
