I would very much appreciate it if someone could and would show me how to enter characters such as U+227B ("succeeds" aka "is strictly preferred to") in an expression generated by Math.
Cut and paste. If you are using Windows, just bring up the Character Map utility and choose a font that contains the character you need. Use that to copy to the clipboard and then just paste it into an expression in Math.
I already tried that; it didn't work. What was represented in Math after the paste was something such as a 'y' with an umlaut/dieresis over it. I also, of course, tried holding down the Alt key and entering the Unicode value.
That's interesting. What operating system are you using? Which font did
you use? I just did it using Arial in both 1.1.4 and 1.9.69 and I got a five-sided figure that looks like a little house.
Whoops! That isn't U+227B. I don't have that character in any font on my
system apparently. At one time I had some math fonts, but I've since re-installed Windows due to a hard-drive failure and they're not there anymore.
I use more than one OS, and I won't want an OS-dependent solution unless there is no other choice. The systems presently used are running Win9x, but the work will probably be moved to a linux box.
I also won't want to be messing with _fonts_, but with the _character_set_, which is something distinct from any font.
