Re: Greek in Groff

Thanks. Some remarks. 1) All input files should have the same encoding or an including (higher order) one 2) 'groff' can only deal with 'ascii' and 'latin1' encodings itself 3) therefor all other encodings must be converted to ascii (7 bit encoding) with 'preconv', for example with the opti

Re: Greek in Groff

Hi Branden, thank you for your detailed reply. I'll try your examples over the weekend. The main reasons why I thought of suggesting the ISO 8859-7 encoding instead of native Unicode were twofold: 1. The example seen on (was it) reddit (?) looked botched, like typical 8 bit output to a syste

Re: Greek in Groff

Hi Mortadelas, I am not an expert in Greek but I have to ask whether you seek support for modern Greek only or whether you also consider Classical Greek which uses more diacritics (5 in case of polytonic orthography) than Modern Greek (two diacritics, if I am not mistaken). There may be differen
