...not roman, and protect them from hyphenation. GNU troff, Heirloom Doctools troff, and mandoc all support use of the `\%` hyphenation control escape sequence at the _beginning_ of a word suppress its hyphenation. Other troffs do not. Indirect this application of the escape sequence through a string, interpolating nothing on formatters that don't advertise GNU compatibility via the `.g` register. (This means that literals can hyphenate undesirably on DWB, Solaris, and Plan 9 troffs.)
GNU troff, Heirloom Doctools troff, and mandoc all also support the GNU
`\:` extension to mark break points that should not produce hyphens.
Apply the same technique to avoid undesired formatting of a ':'
character on DWB, Solaris, and Plan 9 troffs.
