- dooglius 2y agoIt got me, I've seen this sort of suggestion made un-ironically enough that it seemed believable
- zarzavat 2y agoLean (and iirc Mathematica) use backslash escapes: you type \symbolname and the symbol is inserted by your editor. You can also imbue the backslash escape sequence with the same meaning as the unicode, so that in the event that the editor didn’t make this replacement it would still mean the same thing.
- shwouchk 2y agojulia also. Mathematica uses literal “escape” sequences, ie you start a symbol by pressing the esc key and finish with another esc (aside from a bunch of bindings for commonly used things).
- greenavocado 2y agoThis isn't extreme enough. We need to use APL specific keyboards and write in APL for maximum clarity https://xpqz.github.io/learnapl/intro.html https://xpqz.github.io/learnapl/intro.html
- layer8 2y agoThe most general solution is to configure yourself a Compose key [0]. Useful for typing anything that doesn’t directly figure on your keyboard. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key
