grn is a groff preprocessor for Gremlin graphics files. It converts Gremlin vector graphics format to groff commands for embedding line drawings and text in documents.
The tool was originally developed for SunView and later adapted for groff. It handles line drawings, text labels, and other Gremlin primitives.
