Maybe you have an old APL keyboard, but most people don't. The reason everyone is "obsessing" about how someone would actually make your symbol appear is that it won't happen magically by thinking it. So you are proposing and huge hit to ergonomics for everyone for no discernable benefit. that’s nice ! it’s a real shame though, and a bit of a waste honestly, that > everybody needs to cook their own brew of an editor to get there > I'm more than happy to share my vim conceal config. There plugin comes with something similar, but I've customized it to my liking. But other people would probably prefer something different... Which they can have. and primarily all I’m trying to say is that, one day, this will be a legal > piece of code, > I very much hope that will never happen. I'm 99% sure my hope will be realized.
