You might find the mom macro set useful, then, since it has a
special directive, PRINTSTYLE TYPEWRITE, designed to emulate
typewritten copy (single-or double-spaced). Your choice of
monospaced fonts (if you really want to emulate an old Selectric)
and your choice of size. The only carved-in-stone is that single
space is leaded at 12pt and double at 24pt.
There's also an intelligent paragraph spacing option, PARA_SPACE,
and tab/indent management that should make dialogue setup a breeze.
Type man groff_mom to get the entry point for the mom html docs.
