  Hello.

  I can't seem to get a decent read/printout of the wu-ftpd manual pages
and the immediate reason seems to be that my groff installation does not
appear to include a definition of what I am guessing is a macro named
`.MS' because of the way it is used, e.g. 

---------------------------- quote -----------------------
The ftpaccess file is used to configure the operation of
.MS ftpd 1 .
-------------------------- unquote -----------------------

  On my setup this macro (if that is what it is) is used only by wu-ftpd 
manual pages:
  
bedlam:[*root*]/usr/man # grep ^\\\.MS */*
man5/ftpaccess.5:.MS ftpd 1 .
man5/ftpaccess.5:.MS ftpd 1 ,
man5/ftpaccess.5:.MS umask 2 ,
man5/ftpaccess.5:.MS ftplog 5 ,
man5/ftpaccess.5:.MS ftpconversions 5 ,
man5/ftpaccess.5:.MS ftpshut 8
man5/ftpconversions.5:.MS ftpd 1
man5/ftphosts.5:.MS ftpd 1 ,
man5/ftphosts.5:.MS ftpaccess 5 ,
man5/ftphosts.5:.MS ftplog 5 ,
man5/ftphosts.5:.MS ftpconversions 5 ,
man5/ftphosts.5:.MS ftpshut 8
man8/ftpd.8:.MS ftp 1 ,
man8/ftpd.8:.MS getusershell 3 ,
man8/ftpd.8:.MS syslogd 8 ,
man8/ftpd.8:.MS ftpaccess 5 ,
man8/ftpd.8:.MS xferlog 5 ,
man8/ftpd.8:.MS umask 2

   Please advise.
