        !             2:
        !             3: This documents adding a new character escape to mdocterm(1).  Character
        !             4: escapes are only syntax-validated in the back-end.
        !             5:
        !             6: Character escape may be in the form of \*x, \*(xx, \x, \(xx, \[n] and so
        !             7: on and so on.  All of these are recognised according to their byte
        !             8: length.
        !             9:
        !            10: (1) If the escape is NOT recognised in enum tsym in term.h, add it.
        !            11:
        !            12: (2) Modify/create static struct termenc termencN, where N is the number
        !            13: of characters in the encoding.  This is in mdocterm.c.
        !            14:
        !            15: (3) Possibly modify nescape() to recognise a new termencN.
        !            16:
        !            17: Everything else is automatic.
