NAME
       groff_char - groff character names

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page lists the standard groff input characters.  Only the
       characters that are available for the device that is being used to
       print this manual page will be displayed.  The Input code column
       applies to characters which can be input with a single character, and
       gives the ISO Latin-1 code of that input character.  The PostScript
       name column gives the usual PostScript name of the output character.

       The ISO Latin-1 no-break space (code 0240 octal) is equivalent to
       \(space). All other ISO Latin-1 characters print as themselves with the
       following exceptions: ` prints as `, ' prints as '; the corresponding
       ISO Latin-1 characters can be obtained with \` and \(aq. The ISO
       Latin-1 `Hyphen, Minus Sign' (code 45) prints as a hyphen; a minus sign
       can be obtained with \-. The ISO Latin-1 `Tilde' (code 126) prints as
       ~; the larger glyph can be obtained with \(ti. The ISO Latin-1
       `Circumflex Accent' (code 94) prints as ^; a larger glyph can be
       obtained with \(ha.
