Cool :-) I hope you don't mind but I have some (completely unrelated) feature requests: * Superscript and subscript. * Unicode character insertion (insert a character by code value). * Greek letters (really important to me this one). * A few select Math symbols for not-equal less-than-equal etc. The last two are really just convenience interfaces to the Unicode code point insertion. I'm prepared to put a bit of work in to implement these if we can agree on a syntax. So.... I'm thinking of: x[super 2] is x^2 a[sub 1] is a subscript 1 after an "a". [!alpha] is a lowercase Greek alpha. [!ETA] is an uppercase Greek eta. [!!=] is a typeset not-equal sign. [!212B] is an Angstrom sign. Let me know what you think, and if you have any hints for how to go about adding these I'd be very grateful! Thanks, John. _______________________________________________ Boost-docs mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe and other administrative requests: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/boost-docs
