I use the Vim digraphs feature to enter, mainly French accent characters, into Vim files (usually when creating translation documents). Does anyone know if there is an equivelant when using the Linux Bash terminal? #vim #bash #linux #digraphs
In order to check things like location adjacency and shortest-path routing, I've cheated by embedding the #RGL #Ruby #graph package into the base code. Among other things, this makes it simple during game development to detect things like unreachable locations. It has the delightful side-effect of making it simplicity itself to generate a graphical map of the game!

\( \text{Let} ~ p_n = \text{the} ~ n^\text{th} ~ \text{prime}. \)

\( \text{Then} ~ 2023=7\cdot{17}^2=p_{4}p_{7}^2=p_{{p_1}^{p_1}}p_{p_4}^{p_1} =p_{{p_1}^{p_1}}p_{p_{{p_1}^{p_1}}}^{p_1} \)

No information is lost by dropping the terminal 1s. Thus we may write the following form.

\[ 2023=p_{p^p} p_{p_{p^p}}^p \]

Forms like these correspond to a family of #Digraphs called #Riffs and a family of #Graphs called #Rotes.

Immer wieder gut zum fixen Finden vieler Zeichen/Symbole und ihres Unicodes: die #digraphs in #vim (Kommado „:dig“). Geht meist schneller als Wikipedia oder Unicode-Tabellen aufzumachen. ;)

Is support for #digraphs broken in #java?

Given the same locale, java.text package will take digraphs into account when sorting, but ignores them when iterating over language specific letters.

For example, given a Czech locale, word hoch (boy) is split into |h|o|ch| when sorting & into |h|o|c|h| when iterating over letters.

This inconsistency looks like a bug to me but I haven't found any discussion / issue tracker for it. Is this a know issue? Or is it just something that nobody cares about?
