I'm trying to get the Unicode 'COMBINING DOT ABOVE' character to work. This is used for the Newtonian shorthand notation for a time derivative: http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0307/index.htm
As far as I can tell, you would follow any unicode character with the above character, and it should put the dot above it: print(u"q\u0307") should print q with a dot above it. Other diacriticals seems to work, for example, the 'COMBINING FERMATA': print(u"q\u0352") prints the q with a weird little fermata above it. I tried python3 and it does the same thing, so it seems that perhaps my terminal, or the font I'm using in my terminal, doesn't support that particular character. I am using Konsole in Kubuntu 9.04, with the character encoding set to: Unicode--> UTF-8. Can anybody else get the 'COMBINING DOT ABOVE' character to work in their terminals? ~Luke --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
