Enable LaTeX input mode: C-\ "TeX" RETURN 2. Typing \Bbb{R} should now result in ℝ, but (for example) \Bbb{C} does not result in ℂ. I miss at least ℂ (field of complex numbers), 𝔽 (generic field), 𝕂 (generic field, German), ℍ (quaternions), 𝕀 (identity map), ℚ (field of rational numbers), ℤ (ring of integers). Others might miss a few more that are in common use, see [1]. The attached patch adds all blackboard bold capital characters and "1" and "2" using the codepoints from the referenced Wikipedia article.

It's not > very "code-ey"... I searched online, and found the following: https://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ33.pdf Familiar symbols and designs, or a simple combination of a few familiar symbols or designs, are uncopyrightable and cannot be registered with the Office. However, a work of authorship that incorporates one or more familiar symbols or designs into a larger design may be registered if the work as a whole contains a sufficient amount of creative expression. Examples of familiar symbols and designs include but are not limited to • Letters, punctuation, or symbols on a keyboard • Abbreviations • Musical notation • Numbers and mathematical and currency symbols • Arrows and other directional or navigational symbols • Common symbols and shapes, such as a spade, club, heart, diamond, star, yin yang, or fleur de lys • Common patterns, such as standard chevron, polka dot, checkerboard, or houndstooth • Well-known and commonly used symbols that contain a minimal amount of expression or are in the public domain, such as the peace symbol, gender symbols, or simple emoticons • Industry designs, such as the caduceus, barber pole, food labeling symbols, or hazard warning symbols • Familiar religious symbols • Common architecture moldings Given the above, I think this is fine to install with the Copyright-paperwork-exempt tag. We could perhaps contact assign@gnu.org if we feel unsure about this, to hear what they have to say. Does anyone think we should do that first, or have any other comments? Otherwise, I think we should just install it. Best regards, Stefan Kangas ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

Richard, are there any reasons to be more lenient with this kind of changes, wrt to the maximum number of lines we are allowed to accept without a copyright assignment?

So I've pushed this to the emacs-27 branch, and I'm closing the bug. Thanks. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
