  Macros are one to three three characters in length and begin with a
  control character ,
  .Sq \&. ,
! at the beginning of the line.  An arbitrary amount of whitespace may

  .Bd -literal -offset indent

  .It
  In quoted literals, GNU troff allowed pair-wise double-quotes to produce
  a standalone double-quote in formatted output.  It is not known whether
  this behaviour is exhibited by other formatters.
+ .
  .It
  Blocks of whitespace are stripped from macro and free-form text lines
  (except when in literal mode) in mandoc.  This is not the case for GNU
  troff: for maximum portability, whitespace sensitive blocks should be
  enclosed in literal contexts.
+ .
  .It
  The
  .Sx \&sp
  macro does not accept negative values in mandoc.  In GNU troff, this
  would result in strange behaviour.

+ .It
+ The
+ .Sq \(aq
+ macro control character, in GNU troff (and prior troffs) suppresses a
+ newline before macro output; in mandoc, it is an alias for the standard
+ .Sq \&.
+ control character.
