So groff(7) is wrong in stating that \` is the grave accent and unescaped yields the ASCII 0x60 backquote? How about groff_char(7) that states that \[cq] yields the "real" ASCII 39 character? The one that we want to display in the ascii(7) man page. > `, ', - etc. yield 'pretty' quotes, dashes, etc. Life would sure be easier when every character would just print as itself and people wanting pretty quotes should use escaped versions to clearly state their intent... :) Arjan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
