\rightarrow missing?

It seems that \rightarrow is missing. The command exists, in the sense that its use doesn't lead to an error, but it doesn't lead to anything in the output. Minimal example: \starttext $\rightarrow$ \stoptext Jesse -- Jesse Alama (alama@stanford.edu)

Hans, What does the new arrow function in math-vfu.lua supposed to do? Aditya

it will be used instead of the macro based one (as luatex has native support for such extenders now) but i had to wait till you fixed all the other arrows that you added someplace Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Indeed, it seems to be broken in mkiv \rightarrow \to \leftarrow ... However, \leftrightarrow works. So, currently, it is hard to typeset limits under mkiv! Alan On Tuesday 31 March 2009 09:14:16 Hans Hagen wrote:

Hans, this has to do with the arrow function in math-vfu. Do you know why this is failing? Aditya

I switched from MkIV to MkII today because of this gap in MkIV's math: I need to submit a dissertation that has \rightarrow's in it. Let's hope that this issue is resolved soon. Jesse Alan BRASLAU writes:

in math-vfu, patch: --~ main.characters[unicode] = { horiz_variants = t } main.characters[unicode].horiz_variants = t and [0x02190] = 0x20, -- leftarrow [0x02192] = 0x21, -- rightarrow --~ [0xFE190] = 0x20, -- leftarrow --~ [0xFE192] = 0x21, -- rightarrow and remake the format luatex has native support for extensible arrows and since lm lacks them we need to construct them Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hans,

in math-vfu, patch:

--~ main.characters[unicode] = { horiz_variants = t } main.characters[unicode].horiz_variants = t

and

[0x02190] = 0x20, -- leftarrow [0x02192] = 0x21, -- rightarrow --~ [0xFE190] = 0x20, -- leftarrow --~ [0xFE192] = 0x21, -- rightarrow

and remake the format

luatex has native support for extensible arrows and since lm lacks them we need to construct them

Hans

Works. Fantastic! Alan

How do we "extend" these arrows? Traditionally, amstex uses \x...arrow commands for extensible arrows, and \...arrow things are fixed. Aditya

\implies doesn't work ! Undefined control sequence. <recently read> \implies l.11 $\implies $

Currently, \implies, \iff, and \impliedby are not mapped. We need a cleaner model to map symbols with spaces.

...

*I* think \Rightarrow should be exchanged for \implies, as \implies generates a slightly longer arrow.

\implies is usually defined as \;\Rightarrow\; so the size of the arrow should be the same. Aditya
