Hi, I wonder if anybody knows the status of this: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2000-04/msg00036.html In short, using \U'N' to input a Unicode codepoint N.If not---is there any way of injecting a Unicode code-point via escaped character into a groff document?
I ask because mandoc is moving to support Unicode in its backend. This is quite a mechanical transformation; however, changing our assumptions about the input codeset (ASCII) is considerably more difficult. In the short- and middle-term, a way of injecting Unicode with escapes relieves us of this burden.
Thanks, Kristaps
