I do remember some option switches are required. Yes?
Download the file and make sure you save it in "UNIX" format, not DOS (
*i.e.* newline delimited not the nasty <CR><LF> cruft) -- (if you are not
sure how to do that running the dos2unix(1) command will assure it's was
not unix format when you are done).
% file awkdoc
awkdoc: troff or preprocessor input text, ASCII text
% man groff
There's also grog (groff guess) that may help. It's not very clever,
but it recognizes a number of formats:
$ grog ls.1
groff -mdoc ls.1
