Rats! I was assuming that it was calling a family name. Double rats,
triple rats! It actually asks a *font* name, that is:
.fspecial TR TIPA
This works:
.\" groff -ms test1.ms
.\" .fspecial TR TIPA \" not really needed in this case.
.PP
This is a test.
.\" This works fine without .fspecial nor .special
.ft TIPA
\N'152'
.fP
.PP
.\" Yet this doesn't, hmmm... I think it should.
.\" At lest groff(7) says it should!
This is another test. \f[TIPA]\N'152'\fP
Still smelling a bug somewhere... The groff(7) says in the .ft
entry that ".ft font is equivalent to \f[font]", yet, below in the \f
entry, it says the syntax is \f[fam]. I don't know... Assumming \f[fam]
expects an implicit style, I copied the TIPA metrics to TIPAR and still
I get the same error message:
test1.ms:12: warning: can't find numbered character 152
Am I asking too much from \f[xxx]? Can it handle nested requests? Do I
need to use
.fp 10 TIPA
somewhere in the preamble in order to use "\f[TIPA]\N'xxx'\fP? But
Werner just said it wasn't necessary to mount the font explicitly... !?
Let's hope that making a fool of myself has some didactic purpose on
others, it certainly has on yours truly... :)
