Hi,
I found this paper by bwk referenced in the Unix manpages,
in v4 as: TROFF Made Trivial (unpublished),
in v5 as: TROFF Made Trivial (internal memorandom),
also in the v6 "Unix Reading List",
but not anymore in v7.
Anyone have a copy or a scan?
Or is this some subtle in-joke they got tired of explaining :)

Is it what became known as "A TROFF Tutorial" in Volume 2 of the v7
manual and was available as early as October 11, 1976 as referenced by
Ossana in NROFF⁄TROFF User’s Manual as:
1.
[5] B. W. Kernighan, A TROFF Tutorial, Bell Laboratories internal
memorandum
