Re: [Groff] groff - me /texte français

[Grégoire Babey]

Dear Ralph, 

thanks a lot for writing to me and to take time to answer my questions. 
Thanks too for your command-lines, very useful for mailing!
I hope you will understand very soon what I'm looking for. 

The commands you send to me works fine for me too. My point is: 
in place of:
$ printf 'test\xe9\n' | groff -me -mlatin9 -X
it would be much faster and easier to write
$ printf 'testé' | groff -me -mlatin9 -X
but this command doesn't work 

With -man, it is possible:
printf 'testé' | groff -man -Tlatin1
testé

...works!

I don't understand what is the use of -mlatin9 because
$ printf 'test\xe9\n' | groff -me -mlatin9 -X

...give the same result as
$ printf 'test\xe9\n' | groff -me -X

Thank you for your patience
Cheers, Grégoire
