    \\ must behave in a macro def like in a macro argument,
    and when using the macro, it must expand yet again.

+ - implement basic non-parametric .de to support e.g. sox(1)

+ - clean up escape sequence handling, creating three classes:
+   (1) fully implemented, or parsed and ignored without loss of content
+   (2) unimplemented, potentially causing loss of content
+       or serious mangling of formatting (e.g. \n) -> ERROR
+       see textproc/mgdiff(1) for nice examples
+   (3) undefined, just output the character -> perhaps WARNING
+ - port OpenBSD tbl integration bsd.lv, probably cleaning it up
  - look at pages generated from reStructeredText, e.g. devel/mercurial hg(1)
    These are a weird mixture of man(7) and custom autogenerated low-level
