It may seem strange, but I've found myself being such an
old-fashioned person, so I cannot switch from my Linux-based
text-mode koi8-r character cell terminal to an Unicode-capable
one. Alas, world goes Unicode and I should follow. Here's the
code that now helps me. Perhaps, it could be of some use to
somebody else.
(mapc (lambda (l)
(let ((window-system t)) ; FIXME: huh?
(standard-display-underline (decode-char 'ucs (car l))
(cadr l))))
'((#x00ab ?<) ; LEFT-POINTING DOUBLE ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x00bb ?>) ; RIGHT-POINTING DOUBLE ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x00d7 ?x) ; MULTIPLICATION SIGN
(#x03bc ?u) ; GREEK SMALL LETTER MU
(#x03c0 ?p) ; GREEK SMALL LETTER PI
(#x2009 ?,) ; THIN SPACE
(#x2013 ?-) ; EN DASH
(#x2014 ?-) ; EM DASH
(#x2018 ?`) ; LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x2019 ?') ; RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x201c ?\") ; LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x201d ?\") ; RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x2026 ?_) ; HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS
(#x2039 ?<) ; SINGLE LEFT-POINTING ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x203a ?>) ; SINGLE RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
(#x2190 ?<) ; LEFTWARDS ARROW
(#x2191 ?^) ; UPWARDS ARROW
(#x2192 ?>) ; RIGHTWARDS ARROW
(#x2193 ?v) ; DOWNWARDS ARROW
(#x2212 ?-) ; MINUS SIGN
; (#x2227 ?^) ; LOGICAL AND
; (#x2228 ?v) ; LOGICAL OR
(#x2227 ?&) ; LOGICAL AND
(#x2228 ?|) ; LOGICAL OR
))
The Unicode characters that I find particularly useful are
(beyond ASCII and Cyrillic):
«» nM: –— double: “” single: ‘’ nbsp: \,:
degree: ° bullet: • hellip: … lsquo/rsquo: ‹, ›
pi: π mu: μ
mult: × \pm: ± \mp: ∓ \(-\): − logand: ∧ logior: ∨ r/arrow: →
This particular displaying mode can be disabled with, e. g., M-x
standard-display-cyrillic-translit RET RET.
