[Bjarni Ingi Gislason]

GROFF VERSION:
1.16

MACHINE:
HP 9000/770/J210XC

OS:
HP-UX 10.20

COMPILER:
Unknown

INPUT FILES:
.\" One character 0xAD, char173, "soft hyphen", "SHY"
­
.\" End

  "uuencoded" input file, if mail path is still 7 bit.

begin 600 test.gro
M+EPB($]N92!C:&%R86-T97(@,'A!1"address@hidden<C$W,RP@(G-O9G0@:'EP:&5N
3(BP@(E-(62(*K0HN7"(@16YD"GA!
`
end

COMMAND LINE:
troff -ww -z -Tutf8  test.gro

DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:
  Output from command line:

test.gro:2: warning: can't find character with input code 173

SUGGESTED FIX:

  Add the missing character to the font files (B, BI, I, R) in
/usr/local/share/groff/font/devutf8.

  Add characters "shc" and "char173" at "position" 0x00AD.

  The character name "shc" is now only defined for device "latin1".
