fac516d1e5 ps/pdf doc: default to 10-point font, wider leading
Switch the main font to 10 points Times Roman, but leave the leading
at 11 points.  This produces, in my opinion, a much more legible and
printable document.

c2734cc43c Split documentation on string syntax out of "character constants"
Split the documentation on string syntax, as a lexical entity, out of
the section about character constants.  It was confusing to have
discussion that apply more to string constants than character
constants, and they use the same syntax anyway.

af19b09a2e Document __OUTPUT_FORMAT__
It may be "too late" for this to get into 2.03, but I've been whining
that "__OUTPUT_FORMAT__" ought to be documented. Maybe...

e8a092976e Document UTF-8 conversion better, use "byte" instead of "ASCII"
ASCII specifically refers to characters <= 127, so to use "ASCII" for
literal bytes is really confusing in a multibyte environment.  Give an
example of using Unicode escapes.

9e1f528c36 Add the -MP option to emit phony targets
Add the -MP option to emit phony targets.  Since this means each
header file has to be visited more than once, change the
implementation to use an internal list of all the dependencies, and
centralize the emission of the dependency files.
