This package processes the complete sources for a book in DocBook
format and formats it with groff.
+
+This port is the first port of what was previously an internal
+O'Reilly product. Consider it beta quality. The copyright
+information in the README file states:
+
+ # This is ALPHA software. Permission to redistribute this alpha
+ # version is expressly denied.
+
+According to Lenny Muellner <len@oreilly.com>, this is out of date,
+but the archive has not yet been updated.
+
+The only documentation is gmat.sgm. To format,
+
+ # gmat gmat.sgm
+
+The results of the formatting are not exactly production quality.
+There is still a lot of work to be done.
