Depending on your terminal's locale, format for the ascii, latin1,
or utf9 backend. That is, instead of
-Tps
use one of
-Tascii
-Tlatin1
-Tutf8
There is also the grotty(1) frontend (as a replacement for the groff(1)
frontend) which may or or may not tailor things even more to terminal
output. (So far, I never used it myself.)
