nroff (short for "new roff") is a Unix text-formatting program; it produces output suitable for simple fixed-width printers.
It was a descendant of the RUNOFF program from CTSS, the first computerized text-formatting program, and is a predecessor of the Unix troff document processing system.
There is also a free software version of nroff in the groff package.
