Hi Olivier,

I have a few unconverted stuff:
- \tan and \arctan
- \overrightarrow (quite useful for some things like gradient)
- \ldots (that the ellipsis, AKA the three dots ...)
- \max (and probably \min)
That was too easy! OK, I cheated and used a nice table with TeX and
Unicode equivalences:
http://community.jedit.org/?q=node/view/1746
And another one with many commands. Only the \overrightarrow command
added difficulty, and is still not perfect; right now a double-length
arrow is used, so it may look bad if you put too much text under the
arrow.
And for a distant future version
- \gtrsim (and its friends, AMS math symbols).
A similar table with TeX and Unicode equivalences would make it rather
easier. It should be in text form (or HTML, or XML, but not PDF) for
useful manipulation.
googling....
Of course, the unicode references are in pdf or do not contain the tex code:
http://www.unicode.org/charts/symbols.html#PhoneticSymbols
http://www.unicode.org/charts/charindex.html
and vice versa:
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/info/symbols/comprehensive/symbols-a4.pdf
There is a limited table here:

and one for greek symbols

For logic symbols, wikipedia as this with both tex/unicode

Wait... Do you also hear the sound of coconuts! I think I've found the
holy grail!

Best regards,

PS: I still have to figure out why the cross references are half-broken
(eqs and figs): the links work, but no numbers are visible (at the links
position, the numbers at the targets are fine). An arrow is visible
though, pointing either down or up (towards the target).
