Makes sense to follow TeX.

Why not make the same change for \phi, \vartheta, \varrho and \varpi ?

\varsigma looks to be correct, most likely because some PL researchers
actually use it :)

Jens Axel kindly tracked down this link:

  http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/98013/varepsilon-vs-epsilon

and so I'm now planning to change how DrRacket treats \epsilon so that
it inserts ϵ instead of the "backwards 3" that it currently does.

Please let me know if that sounds wrong to you.

That reminds me:

In DrRacket \epsilon is displayed the same way \varepsilon is.

Re: [racket-users] Unicode subscripts in code and scribble

[Leif Andersen]

> Should that table be user-extensible?

Probably not. Ideally, the best thing to do would be to just fix
scribble so that
 it actually properly compiles to latex rather than leaking it's abstractions.

Although that may be too hard to do. :(

On the other hand, I'm all down for making a `literal` or `exact`
scribble form that spits out the literal text into the target latex or
html. (Like what Vincent seems to use in his papers, or is in my
`doodle` package.)

Then I could see making a user extendable table for any sequence of
characters that they want to be converted to latex/html/whatever the
target is.

I think it's still tough, both because we haven't tried to avoid
adding dependencies on new versions of the core in main-distribution
packages, and because it takes more work to update them from a release
installation. So extensibility seems like a good idea to me, in this
and in other areas.

Re: [racket-users] Unicode subscripts in code and scribble

[Vincent St-Amour]

Until we come up with a better solution, could you share a list of the
characters you'd like to use (bonus points for the corresponding LaTeX
commands!), so I can add them to Scribble's list?

Re: [racket-users] Unicode subscripts in code and scribble

[Spencer Florence]

They way I've worked around this in the past is to render the problematic
character as a Pict and then drop that Pict into the scribble document.
Doing that has some problems but it can service if you can't get the
character you want into scribble.

Re: [racket-users] Unicode subscripts in code and scribble

[Vincent St-Amour]

I agree, any extension anyone makes should make it into scribble itself.

The scenario I'm concerned about is: user needs an extra character, but
can't update scribble. Or updating scribble would require updating the
rest of Racket, which may not be what the user wants.

I guess with the split distribution it's less likely to be a problem,
though.

Re: [racket-users] Unicode subscripts in code and scribble

[Robby Findler]

I think any extension is one that all would want (although I am not sure)
and so maybe pull requests is a good way to extend it?

There is the issue of conflicting imports at the latex level tho, so maybe
it should be specifiable at the document level.

Re: [racket-users] Unicode subscripts in code and scribble

[Robby Findler]

I think that maybe you're thinking of something fancier than what's
there. It just takes some (small) set of well-known unicode and has
corresponding latex commands. Then, in the latex backend for scribble,
it looks up latex in that table and drops it in, if it finds it.

Woah, does that actually work? I was under the impression there were
unicode characters that could combine other unicode characters.

Yes, the problem then is the code font doesn't support that character
