describe \fIspecifier\fP
This command will tell you how a character (or each character in a string)
is encoded in the various encoding methods:

lookup command> describe ""
ȵas EUC is 0xb5a4 (181 164; \265 \\244)
as JIS is 0x3524 ( 53 36; \065 \\044 "5$")
as KUTEN is 2104 ( 0x1504; \025 \\004)
as S-JIS is 0x8b1f (139 31; \213 \\037)

.Q ". "
.I Specifier
can also be a four-digit kuten value, in which case the character with that
kuten will be described.
If a four-digit
.I specifier
has a hex digit in it, or if it is preceded by\c

.Q jis ,\c
.Q sjis ,\c
.Q euc ", "
or\c
.Q kuten
to force interpretation to the requested code.

or with the codes but without the escape characters in them).
