Hans> what are the official names for \S and \P ?

The unicode code and name for \P is U+00B6 PILCROW SIGN
and \S is U+00A7 SECTION SIGN.

The adobe postscript names are /paragraph and /section.

(In english, especially in legal documents and citations, each
paragraph and section is referenced by those lines, as in �3�4
for section 4 of paragraph 3.  Or perhaps the other was as in
�4 �4.5 for the fifth paragraph of section 4.  I do not know
how they are used in other languages.)
