troff    
/T'rof/ or /trof/ The grey eminence of {Unix}
text processing; a formatting and phototypesetting program,
written originally in {PDP-11} {assembly code} and then in
barely-structured early {C} by the late Joseph Ossanna,
modelled after the earlier {ROFF} which was in turn modelled
after {Multics}' {RUNOFF} by Jerome Saltzer (*that* name came
from the expression "to run off a copy"). A companion
program, {nroff}, formats output for terminals and line
printers.

In 1979, Brian Kernighan modified troff so that it could drive
phototypesetters other than the Graphic Systems CAT. His
paper describing that work ("A Typesetter-independent troff",
AT&T CSTR #97) explains troff's durability. After discussing
the program's "obvious deficiencies - a rebarbative input
syntax, mysterious and undocumented properties in some areas,
and a voracious appetite for computer resources" and noting
the ugliness and extreme hairiness of the code and internals,
Kernighan concludes:

None of these remarks should be taken as denigrating
Ossanna's accomplishment with TROFF. It has proven a
remarkably robust tool, taking unbelievable abuse from a
variety of preprocessors and being forced into uses that
were never conceived of in the original design, all with
considerable grace under fire.

The success of {TeX} and desktop publishing systems have
reduced troff's relative importance, but this tribute
perfectly captures the strengths that secured troff a place in
hacker folklore; indeed, it could be taken more generally as
an indication of those qualities of good programs that, in the
long run, hackers most admire.

{groff} is {GNU}'s implementation of {roff} in {C}.

  • wireless networking - What is the speed difference between Wi-Fi . . .
    Well, first things first Speedtest net tests the speed of the link between you and the world Modern AC WiFi, Ethernet or USB to Ethernet connections do not bottleneck those connections So that those 3 tests were the same were to be expected Now what you could test, is your local speed, this speed can go way faster! but is of no use unless you own a NAS Also, USB 2 0 or 3 0 does not
  • windows 10 - File downloads very slow compared to speedtest (only for 1 . . .
    TL;DR Speedtest on my pc (with ethernet) reaches 37MB s, files download at ~1MB s, while everything is normal on other computers on the same network Tried reinstalling adapter drivers, resetting network, different DNS, firewall disable, tested with Wireless adapter-same slow download speed
  • Does Distance From the Router Affect Internet speed?
    In the speed test, the data is not downloaded to your router, but rather the packets get routed from the server to your PC, and the speed test server waits for your PC to respond So, the total speed is the speed of the slowest component in this turnabout Exxaggerating the times, you get:
  • Measure bandwidth between two computer in a LAN - Super User
    Is there any way to measure precisely bandwidth between two computers in a LAN?
  • Does increasing upload or download speed reduce ping?
    Neither upload speed nor download speed significantly impact ping Ping is a measure of latency You could have a 100 Mb sec connection with 100 ms of ping and a 1 Mb sec connection with 10 ms of ping
  • How do I test my connection to a given site? - Super User
    Although internet connection is fast enough (8 Mbps, wireless speedtest), I'm having trouble streaming radio from a certain site Here's the peculiar thing: the stream seems to run smoothly on other ISPs, so I'm suspecting that this might be a peering issue How can I test my connection speed with a certain site or server?
  • How do I find out the speed of an Ethernet cable? - Super User
    I'd look somewhat askance at 28AWG 30AWG Speed: 350MHz, 500MHz, etc Indicates manufacturer claims as to bandwidth performance Should be taken with a grain of salt, as they're not always tested Cable Categories Below is a summary of the ethernet cable categories and the preformance standards and bodies that apply to each
  • Why is my Wi-Fi Router showing link speed of 72 Mbps?
    The maximum Wi-Fi link speed (PHY rate) a given client can get when connecting to a given AP is the intersection of which speed-increasing factors both devices support (the overlap in the venn diagram of what they support)
  • Speedtest shows fast connection but actual downloads are slow
    Another difference between speedtest, and the speed from a server you're downloading from is distance, latency, etc Speedtests always pick a server that is closest to you in order to give you the best results A speedtest simply measures the download between you and your ISP It doesn't actually go out beyond your ISP
  • Test network ports faster with PowerShell - Super User
    In Windows 8 1, the Test-NetConnection cmdlet is useful for checking the state of a network port on a remote system However, it can be unnecessarily slow sometimes I'd like to know if there's some
