Various pages

mtk, after a note from Stuart Brady
|
||||
Using /'x'/ to denote a character (string) renders poorly in UTF-8,
|
||||
where the two ' characters render as closing single quotes. On the
|
||||
other hand, using /`x'/ renders nicely on UTF-8, where proper
|
||||
opening and closing single quotes are produced by groff, but looks
|
||||
ugly when rendered in ASCII. Using the sequence /\'x\'/ produces
|
||||
a reasonable rendering (a verticle "apostrophe quote") in both UTF-8
|
||||
and ASCII. So that change is made in a number of pages.
