I have groff installed from the SGI freeware site under /usr/freeware
but there is no eqnchar file under that directory. However, there is a
tmac.an under /usr/freeware/share/groff/tmac. The only problem is that
gtroff and geqn (the programs reporting the errors) are binaries and I
can't change them. Would creating a link in /usr/lib/tmac/ to tmac.an
under the freeware directory solve that problem?

Thanks for your help.
