According to <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=458157>:
“With groff, what you want is \(aq. Unfortunately, that's groff-specific and won't work with, for example, Solaris man. Pod::Man adds: .ie \n(.g .ds Aq \(aq .el .ds Aq ' to the preamble of the man page and then uses \*(Aq as the escape for apostrophes in the man page.” Is this a sufficiently portable solution? I’ve tested it on GNU and Solaris. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
