Subject: Unicode superscript and subscript parentheses as operators
Date: Tue, 28 Dec 2021 17:54:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <68343A62-2D2F-4C6C-A1EA-8381CB833810@telia.com> (raw)

Is it possible to use the Unicode superscript and subscript parentheses as superscript and subscript operators? That is, ⁽…⁾ having the same function as ^{…}, and ₍…₎ as _{…}.

It might be something like the following, but somehow bundling the last part of \letcharcode into a command.
\appendtoks
 \catcode`⁽=\activecatcode
 \letcharcode `⁽ ^{
 \catcode`⁾=\activecatcode
 \letcharcode `⁾ }
 \catcode`₍=\activecatcode
 \letcharcode `₍ _{
 \catcode`₎=\activecatcode
 \letcharcode `₎ }
\to \everymathematics
