Therefore sign

I need to use the ‘therefore sign’. How to use that in Emacs?

M-x insert-char RET therefore RET

Is that the one?

you mean how to type "∴" in emacs?

If so, try the following,

,----
| C-x 8 <return> t h e r e f o r e <return>
`----

Don't forget to auto completion support for symbol name with TAB (instead of
typing all "therefore").

Thanks.,

In my Emacs that is not an interactive function.

That is exactly what I needed. This is something to look into for more
goodies. I see that the because ∵ also works.

Cecil,

Here's a different style of solution.

I use the latin-1-prefix input method and have the following in my .emacs:

    (setq default-input-method "latin-1-prefix")
    (let ((quail-setup-buf (get-buffer-create "*Quail setup*")))
      (save-excursion (set-buffer quail-setup-buf)
             	    (toggle-input-method)
                      ...
                      (quail-defrule ":." ?∴) ;N.B. This is backwards from rfc1345.el.
                      ...))

I also have this comment near the above:
    ;; This seems rather a bit of a hack.

It's not obvious that the above technique is "good" or "the right one" (and I'm happy to learn a better style), but it gets me the symbols that I want.
