My question now is, how do I tell expression() to use the glyphs for these? \u226a and \u226b, as I said. But not in a C locale. Otherwise, a quick approximation could be expression(x~~1). (We don't do negative thin space, do we? That could make it look better.) -- O__ Peter Dalgaard Øster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
