UnicodeMath
Plugin for Sublime for inserting unicode math symbols
Installation
Install via PackageControl or git clone in your Packages directory (Select Preferences → Browse Packages... to open right packages directory).
Usage
Input backslash and name of unicode symbol (for example \forall) then insert space and text will be automatically converted to ∀
To insert space use shift+space
You can disable conversion on space by setting convert_on_space to false.
Emoji
Emoji's names starts with colon (:)
Special
There are also special way to convert subscripts and superscripts with several symbols, just input several symbols after \_ or \^:
S\^1+2k → S¹⁺²ᵏ S\_1+2k → S₁₊₂ₖ
You can also convert list of chars with special prefix via \\prefix\abc, which will be equivalent to \prefixa \prefixb and \prefixc, for example:
\\Bbb\ABCabc → 𝔸𝔹ℂ𝕒𝕓𝕔
Hex-code
Hex-code of unicode symbol can be also used in one of these formats:
\u12ba \U0001d7be \U+1F1D1
To explicitly convert (or convert back) use commands UnicodeMath: Convert, UnicodeMath: Convert Back, UnicodeMath: Convert Back (Code). Selection convert is also available:
To select symbols from list, use command UnicodeMath: Insert
Settings
You can add custom symbols into symbol-table in UnicodeMath settings (Preferences → Package Settings → UnicodeMath → Settings — User or command "Preferences: UnicodeMath Settings — User")
(Note: don't use characters fom word_separators, see #19 issue for details)
"symbols": {
"mysymbol": "\u0021",
"myothersymbol": "\u2080",
"shortcode": "\\u0021", // code within string
"longcode": "\\U00000021",
"pluscode": "\\U+12345",
"manycodes": "\\U+12345\\u0020",
"codes-and-text": "Foo\\U+12345"
}
Synonyms for existing symbols can also be set:
"synonyms": {
"mys": "mysymbol"
}
Now \mys will insert the same symbol as \mysymbol.
Disable plugin for specific syntaxes (most common and default is 'latex'):
"ignore_syntax": ["latex"]
Enable (default) or disable converting hex-codes:
"convert_codes": true
Enable (default) or disable converting multichar sub- and superscripts:
"convert_sub_super": true
Enable (default) or disable converting list of chars with prefix:
"convert_list": true
Font settings
I prefer using Lucida Sans Unicode, it contains many unicode symbols.
"font_face": "Lucida Sans Unicode"
I also recommend to set directwrite font option on Windows to allow font-substitution for unknown unicode symbols
"font_options": ["directwrite"]
Symbols table
You can see all predefined emoji, symbols and synonyms
