I finally solved the problem of automaticaly generating the dicts for unicode <-> TeX conversion. This is the first step in enabling unicode support in mathtext.
The STIX projects is usefull after all ;) They keep a nice table of Unicode symbols at: http://www.ams.org/STIX/bnb/stix-tbl.ascii-2005-09-24 Any comments about the script are appreciated :). Now I'll dig a bit deeper into the font classes to fix them to suport unicode. '''A script for seemlesly copying the data from the stix-tbl.ascii* file to a set of python dicts. Dicts are then pickled to coresponding files, for later retrieval. Currently used table file: http://www.ams.org/STIX/bnb/stix-tbl.ascii-2005-09-24 ''' import pickle table_filename = 'stix-tbl.ascii-2005-09-24' dict_names = ['uni2type1', 'type12uni', 'uni2tex', 'tex2uni'] dicts = {} # initialize the dicts for name in dict_names: dicts[name] = {} for line in file(table_filename): if line[:2]==' 0': uni_num = eval("u'\\u"+line[2:6].strip().lower()+"'") type1_name = line[12:37].strip() tex_name = line[83:110].strip() if type1_name: dicts['uni2type1'][uni_num] = type1_name dicts['type12uni'][type1_name] = uni_num if tex_name: dicts['uni2tex'][uni_num] = tex_name dicts['tex2uni'][tex_name] = uni_num for name in dict_names: pickle.dump(dicts[name], open(name + '.pcl','w')) # An example uni_char = u'\u00d7' print dicts['uni2tex'][uni_char] print dicts['uni2type1'][uni_char] # Testing of results, testing; feel free to unquote # _mathtext_data.py can be found in the matplolib dir #~ from _mathtext_data import latex_to_bakoma #~ supported = 0 #~ unsupported = 0 #~ for tex_symbol in latex_to_bakoma: #~ try: #~ print tex_symbol, dicts['tex2uni'][tex_symbol] #~ supported += 1 #~ except KeyError: #~ unsupported += 1 #~ pass #~ print supported, unsupported Using Tomcat but need to do more?
