What undocumented escape sequences? You mean, after all these years, I can stop telling people that there is no way to get sub and superscripts using enscript? It looks like I've forgotten the standard Unix wizzard motto; if you want to know how something works, RTFSC! Doing so now, I see that it looks like the standard nroff output escapes (ESC-8, ESC-9, etc) are understood.
