Summary description: updated this package for a modern Linux and BSD system

Announcement text:
The tr2latex program now compiles on a modern Linux and BSD system with gcc. The "-b" option was added to output only the LaTeX "body", so converted troff documents can be included in larger LaTeX documents.

More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/tr2latex (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
