+ # can't deal with the highlighting.
+ 
+ # Nroff puts in hightlighting as follows:
+ #	Boldface is cBcBc for each bold c
+ #	Underlining is _Bc for each underlined c.
+ # where B is a backspace.  In perl, as in C, a backspace is Ascii \010.
+ 
+ # We simply strip every character preceding a backspace and the backspace.
+ # Reads from file list (or STDIN) and writes to STDOUT.
+ # (Or can invoke with -i for edit-in-place.)
