Hello,
a suggestion for \celsius in core-mis.tex: \def\celsius#1{#1\,\mathematics{^\circ}\kern-0.1emC}
As is (perhaps) normal for this kind of thing, the "\," depends on your local typesetting tradition, and the "\kern-0.1em" depends on the used font family. That is not to say yours isn't better then the current one :-)
The symbol for \inch is strange: "}". What is \char125 supposed to be, doesn't it depend on the font encoding?
Yes, it does, so there should be a named character created for it. IIRC, these symbols are in one of the unicode planes that are not (completely) supported yet. It would make sense to do a whole block (partial plane) at the same time then? Cheers, Taco
