The "nikud" (vowel) signs, shindot, and shindot are combining Unicode
characters. However, LaTeX-Hebrew expects them as postfix characters, not
accent macros (cf. www.cs.tau.ac.il/~stoledo/Bib/Pubs/vowels.pdf).
* Fix macro termination if \textcyrillic or \textgreek is not required
for Greek or Cyrillic letter.
* Replace "writeScriptChars" with conditionals in the character-output loop in
"Paragraph::latex" (solves "FIXME: modifying i here is not very nice...").
The font changing commands \textcyrillic and \textgreek are no longer
part of the textcommand in "lib/unicodesymbols" but added when required
in Paragraph::Private::latexSpecialChar.
Xe/LuaTeX convert \AA to the deprecated character u212B (which is missing
in the default LatinModern font) instead of the recommended u00C5.
Also fix some of the "missing character" errors in Math.lyx if compiled with
Xe/LuaTeX which were caused by the replacement of \AA with literal u212B characters
in math-insets due to the old definitions in unicodesymbols.
Update the minimal example for failures of Math.lyx with system fonts.
If Document>Settings>Language>Encoding is set to any value except "auto" or "default", we
expect the whole document to use this encoding. Wiht encodings from the CJK package, this means
one big "CJK" environment and no encoding switches.
Characters that are not handled by the CJK package need to be "forced" in lib/unicodesymbols.
This is completed for "euc-cn", the others will follow.
The textcomp Unicode support file "ts1enc.dfu" defines 0x204E Low Asterisk
as \textasteriskcentered. LyX should follow suit.
The ASTERISK OPERATOR (correctly) maps to the same macro,
the "deprecated" tag marks the upstream mapping as preferred choice.
Added "force=iso8859-7" for some characters:
The iso8859-7.def file for the Greek 8-bit input encoding
used \textbullet as placeholder for non-defined characters.
This is fixed in v1.7 2019/01/08.
Once the fixed version is in common use, all "force=iso8859-7"
tags can be removed.
A feature can now be required only for specific input or font encodings:
- <feature>=enc1;enc2... Require the feature <feature> only if the
character is used in one if the specified font
or input encodings.
- <feature>!=enc1;enc2... Require the feature <feature> only if the
character is used in a font or input encoding
that is not among the specified.
Use the command as defined by Babel. This allows us to use the (more
advanced) Babel command if provided instead of rolling our own.
I add a dummy file format change in case it turns out we need to
do something here for old documents (e.g. with user preamble definitions)
Use the LaTeX internal character representation (LICR) macros
provided by lgrenc.def (since version 0.8 from 2013-05-13)
in lib/unicodesymbols. This fixes the PDF bookmarks (except for the
legacy input encoding iso-8859-7) and solves the problem of a missing
"v" character in Libertine LGR fonts (see lyx-users from 2018-01-29).
The ctest unicodesymbols/008-greek-and-coptic_iso8859-7_pdf2" now fails
(due to #9681). This is not a regression, as it is already
"unreliable" (wrong output, Latin character instead of Greek).
Drop compatibility definition of \~ as perispomeni accent
(that was required with lgrenc.def < 0.8).
The xfrac package is the "state of the art" for "split-level" (nice) fractions.
Character replacements look consistent, scale properly and fit in the line.
Fixes#5220.
Test unicodesymbols for most supported input encodings with Kornel's addition to ctests.
Add required "forces" to unicodesymbols:
* utf8x does not support all characters supported by LyX
* several 8-bit encodings map characters to math-mode commands - force replacement in text-mode so that LyX can wrap them in \\ensuremath.
Fix a misalignment (wrong replacements) in the Cyrillic Unicode block.
Use \\mathscr for Mathematical Script characters in Mathematical Alphanumeric Characters (in line with the characters in other unicode blocks.
First run of Kornels patch for tests with all input encodings in lib/encodings.
Remove redundant sample files - keep only one sample and change the input encoding in the test script.
Put remaining failing test in "unreliableTests" for later sorting...
Do not use REVERSE SOLIDUS OPERATOR for backwards conversion of
\\\\textbackslash in LyX and tex2lyx.
Both, \\\\ (005C REVERSE SOLIDUS = backslash) and 0x29f5 map to
\\\\textbackslash but 005c is the preferred back-transformation.
Otherwise, using \\\\ in "mathematical text" leads to literal 0x29f5 in the LyX
source which leads to "missing character" errors with non-TeX fonts.
force=utf8 is required for most characters provided by add-on packgages
and (almost) all mathematical characters, because these are not
set up for inputencs utf8
unicodesymbols.py failed here (python 2.7 under Linux) before the simple fix
included in this commit.
