So, you give us uncommented code that does the wrong thing.
You show us an output file that contains 1Mb more than you want and an output file that contains what you want.
And, you want us to guess at what output you are trying to produce and guess at what the extra 1Mb is.

How about adding some comments to your code saying what each step is supposed to do?
How about describing what |S| and |R| records are?
How about describing in English what the output is supposed to be and how the input is supposed to be transformed into the output?

Can't you give us a representative input file of a few thousand bytes and the corresponding output that should be produced from that sample input. And, can't you post them in the thread instead of expecting volunteers to download 6.6Mb and guess at what you are trying to do?

Please help us help you. Describe what you are trying to do!

NAME
grog - guess options for groff command SYNOPSIS
grog [ -option ... ] [ files ... ] DESCRIPTION
grog reads files and guesses which of the groff(1) options -e, -man, -me, -mm, -mom, -ms, -mdoc, -mdoc-old, -p, -R, -g, -G, -s, and -t are required for printing files, and prints the groff command including those options on the standard output. A filename of - is taken to refer to the standard input. If no files are specified the standard input will be read. Any specified options will be included in the printed command. No space is allowed between options and their arguments. The only options recognized are -C (which is also passed on) to enable compatibility mode, and -v to print the version number. For example, `grog -Tdvi paper.ms` will guess the appropriate command to print paper.ms and then run it after adding the -Tdvi option. SEE ALSO
doctype(1), groff(1), troff(1), tbl(1), pic(1), eqn(1), refer(1), grn(1), grap(1), soelim(1) Groff Version 1.18.1 Nov 2003 GROG(1)
