GNU gettext is distributed with a documentation in info format and in HTML
format. You must be looking at the 'info' format documentation. If you care
about aesthetics of typography, I recommend the HTML format documentation
to use: it uses proportional-width fonts, a page width that adapts to your
browser window's width, and quotes like this: `\n´. This is not perfect;
in a few years, when not only 99% of the browsers but really 100% of the
browsers support Unicode well, we may change the HTML formatted doc to
quote like this: ‘\n’.
