is it expected that \right)² is not recognized as \right)^2?
Yes it is, to enable this feature you need the “mathcrap” module.
Thank you for the quick answer, but ² is still not put at the correct height when used like `\right)²`.
Looking at the mathcrap module (nice name :p), it seems the ² (and other superscript characters) is defined as {\normalsuperscript{2}} and the extra grouping makes the superscript to be applied to an empty base not the brace. Not sure if removing that extra group is safe or not (\normalsuperscript{2} on its own seems to be safe).
not grouping gives an error on $a₀₁₂₃₄₅₆₇₈₉₋₌₊$ (maybe we could have {}\normal... but on the other hand, this module is not really needed as mkiv already recognizes these funny chars anyway Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
