TeX, it has a particular look. Troff looks just
fine to me, and you don't
know it is Troff, Word, or what.
Oh, does *roff support Comic Sans now?
This is interesting; I've always felt like I could pick out troff pretty
readily; I agree that TeX has a certain "look" to it (at least by default),
but I always felt the same about troff as well.
Less flippantly, I know it's TeX is probably mostly about the fonts.
Agreed, I suspect the same is true of my subjective interpretation of troff
as well. Well, with TeX, it's the fonts and the math.
