I would say option b, as unicode-math supports unicode characters inside math mode. Maybe some users would prefer a latex source that contains the unicode symbols and not the corresponding macros. Ot maybe a better solution would be to add a checkbox in Document->Settings->Math Options and let the user decide between option a and option b. but that would probably require more work. > -- > lyx-devel mailing list > lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org > http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
