Character +escapes are only syntax-validated in the back-end. + +Character escape may be in the form of \*x, \*(xx, \x, \(xx, \[n] and so +on and so on. All of these are recognised according to their byte +length. + +(1) If the escape is NOT recognised in enum tsym in term.h, add it. + +(2) Modify/create static struct termenc termencN, where N is the number +of characters in the encoding. This is in mdocterm.c. + +(3) Possibly modify nescape() to recognise a new termencN. + +Everything else is automatic. |
