Dear devs,

In mathematics the norm of something is usually denoted by the double vertical bars, e.g. ||v||.  This is not available in asciimath.

\usemodule[asciimath]
\starttext
$\asciimath{ x^* = min { x | sum_{kk} ||f(x_{kk}^{20})|| } }$
\stoptext

Could you please add this to the parser?

Cheers, Henri

IIRC, x-asciimath implements (part of?) the asciimath markup:
http://asciimath.org
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AsciiMath

Typing the above formula on the asciimath website does not render it 
correctly.

Thanks Aditya!

Seems like there is no double vertical bar in the ASCIIMATH specs.  I
don’t use it anyway.

Sorry for making noise.
