It has come to my attention that whereas with LANG=C "nroff -man"
formats ".An name Aq email" as "name <email>", it uses different
characters with LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 "name ⟨email⟩". These characters
are appropriate, but a lot of unicode fonts don't seem to have them.
Or else my terminal (rxvt-unicode) has trouble displaying them.
Does anybody know a workaround for this?
