You may be on an OS that renders the overline in a not-annoying way. On MacOS, here's what we see: https://i.imgur.com/c90WOgO.png https://i.imgur.com/c90WOgO.

I can imagine that this wasn't your intent, and maybe it shows up differently on Windows or Linux. If so, you might want to say so.
(If it was your intent for it to look like that, though, then I agree it's the pedantic equivalent of Zalgo.)
- metagame 5y agoIt renders as-expected on NetBSD, Linux and Haiku. If you check the linked Overline Wikipedia page, «Overline (markup)» and «Overline (character)» look near-equivalent. I see what may have been the problem, though. It looks like somewhere in the process the overline was duplicated. Probably an issue with my IME (I've been working on it for a while now, but it's still got a few quirks). Does this (6̅) look right to OS X users?
- sillysaurusx 5y agoBingo! That looks perfect. :) Always nice to clear up a miscommunication. dances around Have a great evening.
- metagame 5y agoYou too, Shawn.
- samtheprogram 5y agoOddly enough, the repeating symbol looks fine on iOS but not macOS..
