I was the coauthor of an article on 7-bit names for troff of
non-ASCII characters, together with some support for national
ISO 646 variants. Here is the article. Enjoy!

XThe typesettting program
X.I troff
Xwas originally written for formatting English text for the CAT 48 Typesetter.
XIts offspring is used for formatting a variety of languages with a large
Xdiversity of output devices.
XThe authors agreed on an addition
Xto the troff character set covering old and new national and
Xinternational latin based character sets.

X.I ditroff\|

Xuses a flexible font definition mechanism that allows addition and deletion
Xof characters.
X.LP
XMany people, including the authors, have used this mechanism
X.[
XKahrs and Moore
X.]
Xto add characters.
XThis has led to a diversity of names, with the expected conflicts
Xof using the same name for different characters and different names for the same
Xcharacter in different implementations.
XThus
X.I troff
Xinput files are becoming less and less portable,
Xeven for the same output device on different installations.
XWe regret this development and, during a conference in Copenhagen,
Xwe decided to make an attempt at some standardization.
XB.W. Kernighan, author of ditroff, agreed to our proposal of acting as a
Xclearing house for our new names and he still has to give his blessing
Xto this article.
X.PP
XWe realize that it is impossible to name every printable character in the
Xworld.
XThe total amount of different characters is simply too huge.
XNaming all the hundred different turtles in a turtle font is both
Xfrustrating and futile.
XWe restricted ourselves to the following categories:
X.IP \(bu
Xcharacters belonging to the printed language of several Western-European
Xcountries: \(AE \(ss

XThe
X.I troff
Xcharacter set is based on the US-ASCII standard.
XThis standard is well suited to English text,
Xbut causes problems when used in most European countries.
XUS-ASCII is a version of the ISO 646-1983 standard.
XThe ISO standard states the characters used in 7 bit ASCII
Xand contains 94 printable graphic symbols.
XISO-646 allows national versions for 12 of its character positions.
XThe European Computer Manufacturers' Association ECMA is registering
Xall different national versions of ISO 646-1983 and assigns
Xa different character to each.
XThis allows the creation of documents with multiple character sets.
XThe assigned character serves to identify each character set in such documents.
XThe table below shows several versions conforming to ISO 646.

XTerminals in these countries are often
Xadapted to these national variations.
XCreating
X.I troff
Xinput for Danish texts on Danish terminals is a frustrating experience.
XOne has to type
X.B \e(AE
Xfor
X.B \(AE
Xin spite of the presence of a special key for \(AE.
XYou can by-pass this by using the
X.I troff
Xcommand \f3.tr\fP,
Xwhich allows the mapping of any character to any other.
XWe have employed the \f3.tr\fP command in a macro \f3.la\fP
Xwhich is designed to make it possible to shift between
Xall the ISO 646 input charater sets in the above table.
XThe macro takes a code for the country as parameter; the first
Xtwo letters being the ISO 3166 two-letter country code.
XThe \f3.la\fP macro can be used like this:
X
X.ft CW
X.nf
X .la US
X First we write something in "God's own" character set.
X .la DK
X S} skriver vi noget s|dt p} dansk: sodavandsis.

XThe \f3.la\fP
Xmacro can only be used when all the characters of the character sets in use
Xhave a unique code on the printing device. Also you cannot change input
Xcharacter set within a diversion in
X.I troff,
Xyou need to use the special character names if you want to use foreign
Xcharacters within a sentence. An example of having a French name
Xin a Danish text:

XTo be able to use all other national characters within a national
Xcharacter set,
Xwe decided to introduce names for all the different national
Xcharacters,
Xeven for the 'default' US names.
X.PP
XAlso we went through the new ISO standards for Latin alphabets
X(ISO 8859)
Xand assured that all special characters there would have a unique
Xname according to this proposal.
X.PP
XA last warning is about the
X.I troff
Xescape character \e and the national characters taking its place.
XHere you must write the national character followed by an 'e'
Xto get the desired result.

XProblems we did not pursue
X.PP
XWritten English is based on the latin alphabet,
Xit hardly uses accents and other variations of letters.
XOther languages make use of accents above (\(`e), below (\(,c) and
Xthrough (\(/o) the letters.
XWe do not address the problems of languages with more than one
Xaccent per letter and
X. \"(\o'v\(aa'\h'-\w'v'u'\v'0.1m',.\v'-0.1m'\h'0.2m'),
Xaccents connecting letters.
XIn our opinion these problems have to be solved by separate preprocessors.
XThis allows a much more friendly user interface.
XThese preprocessors could also solve the problem of hyphenation
Xand ligatures for these languages.
X.NH 2
XThe troff naming scheme
X.PP
X.I Troff
Xhas three ways of naming characters:
X.IP \(bu
Xone character ASCII names like
X.B A
Xfor A,
X.B B
Xfor B
Xand
X.B @
Xfor @.
X.IP \(bu
Xescaped one character names prefixed by a
X.B \e
Xlike
X.B \e\-
Xfor current font minus,
X.B \ee
Xfor backslash
Xand
X.B \e\'
Xfor acute accent.
XThere are only a few of these.
X.IP \(bu
Xtwo character names prefixed by the indicator
X.B \e(
Xlike
X.B \e(sc
Xfor \(sc,
X.B \e(*g
Xfor \(*g
Xand
X.B \e(14
Xfor \(14.
X.LP
XThe sets of one-character names and escaped one character names are fixed.
XOnly the set of two character names can be extended.
X.NH
XChoosing new names
X.PP
XWhile choosing names for new characters we were very much aware
Xof the fact that the restriction of two characters per name
Xdefies all attempts to choose a consistent and logical naming scheme.
XStill we used a few principles in choosing the new names.
XWhenever these principles conflicted we refrained from long
Xdiscussions but placed more value on a quick decision.
X.LP
XOur principles:
X.IP \(bu
Xmay not conflict with original troff manual
X.[
XOssanna
X.]
X.IP \(bu
Xtry to avoid the national characters:
X\(sh \(Do \(at \(lB \(rs \(rB \(ha \(oq \(lC \(ba \(rC \(ti
X.IP \(bu
Xuse characters associated with the graphical description of the symbol.
XThus
X.B \e(oA
Xfor
X.B \(oA
Xinstead of \f3\e(AA\f1.
X.IP \(bu
XWhenever a character is a combination of an accent and a letter
Xuse as name a character representing the accent followed by the letter.
XFor example: \f3\e('e\f1 for \('e.
XThis is the way these combinations were made on old-fashioned
Xtypewriters:
Xfirst hit the dead key with the accent then the key with the letter.
XThe characters we used for the accents (and the like) are:
X.br
X.sp 0.6

XAccent \(aa \(ga \(ad \(ac \(ti \(de \(ha . \(a" \(ab \(ah \(hy \(sl
XName aa ga ad ac ti de ha a. a" ab ah hy sl
X.TE
X.IP \(bu
Xfractions are done in the natural way: \f3\e(\f2nm\f1
Xfor \s-3\v'-0.45m'n\v'0.45m'\s0/\s-3m\s0.
X.IP \(bu
XCurrency signs have two letter names.
XThe first letter is Capital, the second small.
X.IP \(bu
XThe names for accents start with an \f3a\fP, for example
X.B \e(ad
Xfor \(ad.
X.NH
XThe weird characters one has
X.LP
XSuppose you have a
X.I flat,
Xwhich is unlikely on any other device, but
Xstill want to have your input send to your friend/editor which can run
Xit on his troff.
XThe first thing to do is not using the character as it is
Ximplemented on your troff (f.i. \e(ft), but define a
Xstring at the beginning of the text and use that.
XThe next thing to do is to give a description how it should look like.
XSo if we stick with our flat, you end up at the start of the your
Xinput file with:
X.DS
X.ft CW
X .\e" We use a "flat" (\e(ft) a lot instead of a backslash, because it
X .\e" stands out nicely and, since a backslash can be interpreted in
X .\e" so many ways, I want to make clear that you see an escape when I
X .\e" talk about it....
X .\e" So I define the string ft
X .ds ft \e(ft
X .\e" A "flat" is what in music stands for lowering the current
X .\e" tone. If that not is clear, consider a | (pipe character) with
X .\e" an small circle attached to it on the left bottom side.
X .\e" A define in the style of
X .\e" .ds \eo'|o'
X .\e" will do if you don't have anything more than a lineprinter around.
X .\e" If you want to be really fancy, you might want to try
X .\e" something like:
X .\e" .nr x \ew'o'/2u
X .\e" .nr y .2m
X .\e" .ds ft \ev'-\enyu'\ez|\eh'\enxu'\ev'\enyu'\eS'-9'o\eS'0'
X .\e" Fancy ain't it?
X.DE
X.ft 1
XSo the rest of your article will look (at the input side) as:
X.DS
X.ft CW
X An escape (denoted by \e*(ft) in troff will introduce a two
X character name XX by \e*(ft( (so \e*(ft(XX) and a two character
X named QQ string interpolation will be triggered
X by \e*(ft*( (\e*(ft*(QQ).
X.DE
X.NH
XThe future
X.PP
XNew versions of
X.I troff
Xinclude a more forms of naming characters.
XBoth \f3\eC\'\f2arbitray\ long\ name\f3\'\f1 and
X\f3\eN\'\f2absolute\ Number\ of\ character\ in\ current\ font\f3\'\f1
Xare used.
XThe first allows character names of arbitrary length.
XThe latter allows unnnamed characters.
XThis does not solve the problems discussed in this article.
XWorse, it will even be harder to choose names upon which
Xa sizeable number of people will agree.
