I'm amused that someone would use LaTeX to reproduce a manuscript of
dot-matrix source listings and roughly-typewritten commentary.
(No offence at all intended to Dr Lions; the genius was clearly all in
the content, not the typography.)
When you describe the notes as having been "roughly-typewritten" I think
that you may have been misled by the quality of the printer that was used.
According to the 'Acknowledgements' in Lions:
'The co-operation of the "nroff" program must also be mentioned.
Without it, these notes could never have been produced in this form.
However it has yielded some of its more enigmatic secrets so reluctantly,
that the author's gratitude is indeed mixed. Certainly "nroff" itself
must
provide a fertile field for future practitioners of the program
ducumenter's art.'
