   .Ss Man and Mdoc Strings
   Strings may be extracted from mdoc and man meta-data, or from text
   nodes (MDOC_TEXT and MAN_TEXT, respectively).
   These strings have special non-printing formatting cues embedded in the
   text itself, as well as
   .Xr roff 7
   escapes preserved from input.
   Implementing systems will need to handle both situations to produce
   human-readable text.
   In general, strings may be assumed to consist of 7-bit ASCII characters.
   .Pp
   The following non-printing characters may be embedded in text strings:
   .Bl -tag -width Ds
   .It Dv ASCII_NBRSP
   A non-breaking space character.
   .It Dv ASCII_HYPH
   A soft hyphen.
   .El
   .Pp
   Escape characters are also passed verbatim into text strings.
   An escape character is a sequence of characters beginning with the
   backslash
   .Pq Sq \e .
   To construct human-readable text, these should be intercepted with
   .Fn mandoc_escape
   and converted with one of
   .Fn mchars_num2char ,
   .Fn mchars_spec2str ,
   and so on.
