I don't know why *roff didn't take off.  It could be that paragraphs are
difficult to read due all the markups (you know what I mean if you ever
read the manpage source), but you can say that for LaTeX or HTML also.

If I win a lottery, "document" is one area I'll throw money at.  Another
area being, "accounting". :-)
