    doc/groff.texi: Improve examples.
    
    I've long been bothered by the TeX logo examples I added; to fit them
    within the margins of the print version of out Texinfo manual I had to
    reduce the precision of the movements by quite a bit.  The idea of
    propagating such a crude mockery of Knuth's logo filled me with horror.
    
    So, change it.
    
    * doc/groff.texi (Strings): Improve examples.
      (Page Motions): Add trailing '\"' to TeX logo example that _does_ fit.
      Add footnote to explain its presence by cross reference.
