Sorry, my mistake. That should have been \*[SN-DOT], and \*[SN-NO-DOT] for the case without the terminal dot; (IIRC, these two first appeared in groff-1.19.1 -- it was I who added them -- so they won't be supported in any earlier version). > But \*[SN] seems to do the trick. > > Is there a document that covers these escapes? I can't find anything in > groff(7) or in info groff. `man groff_ms', or the ms section under `Macro Packages' in the info manual, for the ms specific stuff. `man 7 groff', (`man -s 7 groff' on SunOS, or other systems requiring that syntax), does list \& under `Single Character Escapes'; its use is more fully discussed in the `Ligatures and Kerning' section of the info manual, (found via the `Escape Index', from the top node).
