 If you really need the -Tps option on groff you can grab the sources from
your favorite GNU-Site and compile them yourself incl all support.
  ( You need G++ installed correct , Compilation is out of the Box for V1.06
    after setting your Papersize and default output )

Just one note : sometimes my g++ died on compiling different subdirs.
                If it happens just restart the compilation.
