Wonderfull answer ! I am new to julia (ijulia) today's exactly... But I was wondering how to get symbols... You save me a good lot of time ! So I will enjoy longer my favorite "Saumur Champigny" ! lol Le mercredi 15 janvier 2014 17:26:57 UTC+1, Stefan Karpinski a écrit : > > Since Julia source

Yet another small update, since most users might miss this: Vim now has an optional on-the-fly-as-you-type LaTeX-to-Unicode substitution mode, which however is off by default (so as to emulate the Julia REPL as closely as possible). See the documentation on how to enable it at

Update: the vim plug-in now includes this feature. If you press Tab after a valid latex sequence, it substitutes it, otherwise it falls-back to whatever was previously mapped for Tab. Or at least that's what it's supposed to do. On Thursday, May 22, 2014 10:03:39 PM UTC+2, Stefan Karpinski

A quick update for people who haven't been tracking git closely: The Julia REPL (#6911), IJulia, and (soon) Emacs julia-mode (#6920) now allows you to type many mathematical Unicode characters simply by typing the LaTeX symbol and hitting TAB. e.g. you can type \alphaTAB and get α, or x\hatTAB

Great! This feature will be in Light Table soon, too – complete with fuzzy searching, so that it's easy to browse all available symbols :) On 22 May 2014 18:27, Steven G. Johnson stevenj@gmail.com wrote: A quick update for people who haven't been tracking git closely: The Julia REPL

Also for vim users who aren't aware of this: vim has a convenient way to enter common special characters in the form of [1]digraphs which you can enter by pressing ctrl-k in insert mode. You have to learn the digraph for the symbol, but they are pretty mnemonic in their assignment (e.g 'C(' - ⊂,

That's true, but I think the best solution would be to have the same keybindings in the julia REPL and in vim. I think it'd be terribly confusing otherwise. -- mb On Thu, May 22, 2014 at 3:56 PM, Daniel Jones danielcjo...@gmail.comwrote: Also for vim users who aren't aware of this: vim has a
