Trigraph sequences
Trigraph sequences are three-character
sequences that are replaced by a corresponding
single character in Translation Phase 1, as follows:
| ??= | # | ??( | [ | ??< | { | 
| ??/ | \ | ??) | ] | ??> | } | 
| ??' | ^ | ??! | | | ??- | ~ | 
No other such sequences are recognized.
The trigraph sequences provide a way to
specify characters that are missing on some
terminals, but that the C language uses.
