    groff_char(7): Alter code tables.
    
    * Add | to Basic Latin and Rules and lines tables; it is almost as
      overloaded as the hyphen-minus.  (It's "itself", a box rule, and a
      bitwise OR.)
    
    * Move dotless i and j from "Ligatures" to "Supplemental Latin letters".
    
    * Rename "Dutch currency sign" to "lowercase f with hook" and move from
      "Currency symbols" to "Supplementary Latin letters".  The florin is
      presently of historical rather than commercial interest, and lacks
      the "Currency" attribute in Unicode, which is suggestive.  This also
      internationalizes (as opposed to localizing) the description.  Add
      "function" to its description.
    
    * Correct "AT&T Bell Labs logo" [sic] to "Bell Systems logo".
    
    * Add +, \- (hyphen-minus), and = to Mathematical symbols table so that
      a contrast with the "special font" forms of the glyphs can be seen.
    
    * Add \[Fn] to Mathematical symbols table.  It's overloaded as well;
      there is a "mathematical italic small f" in Unicode but it's outside
      the BMP.  We have no glyph names that map outside the BMP.
    
    * Recast description of physics h-bar so that it can break, resolving an
      adjustment warning.
    
    * Drop the white heart and diamond suits from the playing card symbols
      chart; they were the only symbols in the charts with no mnemonic groff
      glyph names, only Unicode hex references (e.g., "\[u2661]").  One of
      the purposes of this man page is to list the supported glyph names,
      not dump the Unicode character set.
