What encoding is your input? Can you give an example? This worked for
me.
$ nroff
.pl 1
.de ¶
.ce
..
.¶
foo
^D
foo
$
Now, that's actually two bytes as far as nroff is concerned, UTF-8
encoding here means it gets 0xc2 0xb6. But I can give it the single
0xb6 too and it still works.
$ printf '%s\n' '.pl 1' '.de @' .ce .. .@ foo |
> perl -pe 's/@/\xb6/g' |
> nroff
foo
$
Cheers, Ralph.
