Delorie recommended that lout go elsewhere, since the djgpp collection
is primarily a program development environment.

In any case, lout-3.12 (with PDF patches) for DOS and Win32 should
be visible on the above site on 3-Nov.  Thanks to Matthew Cepl and
Valeriy E. Ushakov for the help.  A short description from
http://www.ptc.spbu.ru/~uwe/lout/lout.html follows.

   Lout is a document formatting system designed and implemented by
   Jeffrey Kingston at the Basser Department of Computer Science,
   University of Sydney, Australia.

   The system reads a high-level description of a document similar in
   style to LaTeX and produces a PostScript file which can be printed on
   most laser printers and graphic display devices. Plain text and PDF
   (starting from version 3.12) output are also available.
