From 1f42b16d7620434847b937d82a463bd7cbe63255 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Schwarze Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2015 20:33:25 +0000 Subject: Rudimentary implementation of the roff(7) \o escape sequence (overstrike). This is of some relevance because the pod2man(1) preamble abuses it for the icelandic letter Thorn, instead of simply using \(TP and \(Tp.
