very real, but its intended use is a COMPLETE JOKE. Ha ha! April Fool!
Please download MathText and get a good laugh -- or use it to test your
font, as one person told me he would -- but please, please don't misuse
Unicode.


Well, let's say that I make a plain text document and include a mathematical formula or funtion such as "cos x", it would still be legal to use an italic "x" from the mathematical block, wouldn't it? This is what those characters are intended for, right?
