   For backward compatibility with existing manuals,
   .Xr mandoc 1
   also supports the
   .Pp
   .Dl \eN\(aq Ns Ar number Ns \(aq
   .Pp
   escape sequence, inserting the character
   .Ar number
   from the current character set into the output.
   Of course, this is inherently non-portable and is already marked
   as deprecated in the Heirloom roff manual.
   For example, do not use \eN'34', use \e(dq, or even the plain
   .Sq \(dq
   character where possible.

   .Sh CAVEATS
   The
   .Sq \e*(Ba
   escape mimics the behaviour of the
   .Sq \&|
   character in
   .Xr mdoc 7 ;
   thus, if you wish to render a vertical bar with no side effects, use
   the
   .Sq \e(ba
   escape.
