bug#42219: 26.3; WoMan italic `\,VARIABLE\/ representation

[Alper Alimoglu]

https://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/59463/18414

Link on the emacs.stackexchange:
When I do M-x woman => ln , as you can see italic variables are
represened as in between following pattern \, - \/. How could I remove
or fix it?


@wasamasa answered:
Congratulations, you've found a bug.  \, and \/ are
space-adjusting escape sequences for groff this package doesn't handle
yet. 
https://www.gnu.org/software/groff/manual/groff.html#Ligatures-and-Kerning
explains how they work, but it's unclear what part of the package to
adjust for that.

I suggest you to use M-x report-emacs-bug and edit the link to the bug
report into this question for tracking.
