Hi, Branden!
Is it possible to represent the following precisely in a manual page?:
[[
$ echo -e "\n\nHere's some text.\n\n\nAnd here's some more."
Here's some text.
And here's some more.
]]
It's the output of a program that I'd like to represent precisely in
EXAMPLES, but groff(1) doesn't like things like:
[[
.EX
.RB $ " echo -e \"\n\nHere's some text.\n\n\nAnd here's some more.\""
Here's some text.
And here's some more.
.EE
]]
Thanks,
Alex
