This "word" is a collection of characters, each of which means a guessed `groff' option. > However, the source file for groff_char.7 (.../man/groff_char.man) > has: > .\" t > > as its first line.

I changed grog, such that lines starting with . (period) or ' (apostrophe) are both regarded as equal (only within `grog'). I extended `grog' to recognise 8 single character options from a first line. Bernd Warken
