Roff Language Support
=====================

Support for Unix manual pages (Troff/Groff) in Atom, as well as the entire Roff typesetting language.

![What? Nobody writes this by hand anymore?](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Alhadis/language-roff/02696cdbcca95d7d478ccf703bc22fbe27da48c7/figure-1.png)

See [**roff**(7)](http://linux.die.net/man/7/roff) or [*"History of UNIX Manpages"*](http://manpages.bsd.lv/history.html) for a comprehensive rundown of the language's history.
