Subject: bug#16082: iso-transl: expand towards ISO 10646 from just ISO 8859-1
Date: Fri, 06 Dec 2013 20:29:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fvq567uw.fsf@violet.siamics.net> (raw)
Package: emacs
Severity: wishlist
As currently implemented, C-x 8 (iso-transl-ctl-x-8-map) is a
rough equivalent of a compose key, pre-loaded with a number of
combinations for ISO 8859-1 codepoints. However, I see no
reason not to go further and provide additional bindings for
(the superset’s) ISO 10646 ones. For instance, in addition to
C-x 8 1 / 2 (½) and C-x 8 3 / 4 (¾), there could easily be C-x 8
1 / 8 for ⅛ and C-x 8 3 / 5 for ⅗.
My guess is that everything described [1] as a “vulgar fraction”
or a sub- or superscript digit can be added to the keymap
without altering the current bindings, — as well as probably a
number of other codepoints.
Personally, I’d rather appreciate bindings to the single (‘ ’)
and double (“ ”) quotation marks (which I’ve already bound to
C-x 8 ' [, ] and C-x 8 " [, ] in my ~/.emacs.)
