Subject: Diamond, and Unicode math symbols
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2016 22:00:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <nbsn95$vh3$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
I'm looking for a symbol similar to \lozenge, but squarer (like
\Diamond in some LaTeX packages, see The Comprehensive Symbol List,
p. 112). Any idea how I may typeset it in ConTeXt (MKIV)? \diamond
is too small. I am using TeX Gyre Pagella Math if that matters.
I also have a couple of questions about \showmathfontcharacters:
1) does that list show all and only the symbols available in the
current font, or a predefined list of symbols?
2) The list shows a Unicode point for each symbol, but not the
corresponding TeX command (if it exists). Say I need U+02B31
(three leftwards arrows), and I don't want to bother searching
TCSL above. May I use the Unicode code point to define a control
sequence in ConTeXt that prints the symbol? If so, how?
Nicola
