woman: Special symbols

 
 5.4 Special symbols
 ===================
 
 This section currently applies _only_ to Microsoft Windows.
 
 WoMan provides partial experimental support for special symbols,
 initially only for MS-Windows and only for MS-Windows fonts.  This
 includes both non-ASCII characters from the main text font and use of a
 separate symbol font.  Later, support will be added for other font types
 (e.g., ‘bdf’ fonts) and for the X Window System.  In Emacs 20.7, the
 current support works partially under Windows 9x but may not work on any
 other platform.
 
 ‘woman-use-extended-font’
      A boolean value.  If non-‘nil’ then WoMan may use non-ASCII
      characters from the default font.  Default is ‘t’.
 
 ‘woman-use-symbol-font’
      A boolean value.  If non-‘nil’ then WoMan may use the symbol font.
      Default is ‘nil’, mainly because it may change the line spacing (at
      least in NTEmacs 20).
 
 ‘woman-symbol-font’
      A string describing the symbol font to use for special characters.
      It should be compatible with, and the same size as, the default
      text font.  Under MS-Windows, the default is
 
           "-*-Symbol-normal-r-*-*-*-*-96-96-p-*-ms-symbol"
