We just called it the Toronto typesetting software, but I don't know if it
ever had a real name. As I wrote, it's on the Toronto distribution tape
from the late '70s.

Later that year we, mostly Bill, coupled it to

For many years I saw evidence in scientific
papers of people using Bill's
digitization of the Bodoni fonts.
Do you recall the name of this software or project? I tried various
greps in a few of the Usenix archives but cannot tell what it is.
Thanks
