Those must have come from Andy's keyboard, mine (US utf-8) won't even
type that one.
However, wee just hit a lick, I just found that wrapping the "4", as in
("4") works! I'll make it a 6 and see how it looks in a single hbox.
Too wide yet, but still 2 of them are too small, but 4 works good, and
room on one line is left for at least 2 more, maybe even 3 more if I can
figure out what to control with them.
Exactly what I wanted, thanks, Phillip, for calling that typu to my
attention. Otherwise I would never have tried the (). More evidence that
my stupidity is advanceing with the years, now 85 of them things, darn
it. :-(
