[PATCH 09/34] Use special character escape sequence for grave accent ("backtick"). |
Date: |

Not doing so causes the character to render as U+2018 or similar on
devices with typographer's quotation marks.
* man/curs_add_wch.3x:
* man/curs_addch.3x:
* man/terminfo.tail:
* man/tput.1: Do it.
* man/tset.1: Migrate from use of \` to \(ga. \` is _correct_ but can
be misleading. A Unix shell person will assume that \' is the correct
escape sequence to use for a "literal" apostrophe (U+0027), but the
analogy fails; \' produces an acute accent, U+00B4.
See groff_char(7) for background.
