- The following troff string definitions make the Swedish-alphabet
- characters that are missing from the standard font.
- \*(aa, \*(AA make 'a' with a ring (sometimes written 'aa')
- \*a, \*A make 'a' with two dots (sometimes written 'ae')
- \*o, \*O make 'o' with two dots (sometimes written 'oe')
- \*e (lower case only) makes 'e' with acute accent
- \*(ov (lower case only) makes 'o' with ^ above it (colloquial)
- These have been tested in fonts between 7 and 16 points, and
- don't work very well in the italic font.
