It's not possible to escape the ', e.g. \' so is not important if it's 
at the beginning or not of the line ?

I ask the question because I start a very simple program to format the 
man page to have all at a maximum coloumn of  78 and it may happen to 
have the ' at the begining of the line (the first time I saw this i 
tough that there was a error in the program but this explain all).

    Thanks
