I have been using TranScript on a Masscomp running a UNIX System III
derivative for a couple of months and consider the site-wide source
license for $3000 a great bargain.  It works very nicely on ASCII files
and nroff output, but fouls up when using the Helvetica font family with
old troff.  The Times Roman family with old troff works fine however, so
that's what I use.  TranScript also runs under 4.2 and System V.
