you might try zgrep instead of grep, this will look in gzip files also..

if you used zgrep, you would see the
/usr/share/doc/smm/01.setup/paper.ascii.gz is an ascii version of the
data you are looking for... /usr/share/doc/{smm,psd,usd}/* is a GREAT
reference and contains MUCH information... I think we should publicize
these docs more...

if you looked at the Makefile in the same directory, you would see
that it uses -ms, and you need to add the -t because of USE_TBL..
so you could read it with:
groff -t -Tascii -ms 5.t | more
and that should give you readable output...
