Hello, list. I Was checking out math-frc.mkiv to learn stuff, and found out that at the end of that file, from line 673, there is a couple commented out macros to generate "nice fractions'', i.e.: ½ (as in the LaTeX package nicefrac). Why has this code been commented out? These are quite useful. -- Andrés Conrado Montoya Andi Kú andresconrado@gmail.com http://sesentaycuatro.com http://messier87.com http://chiquitico.org ---------------------------------------- Los fines no justifican los medios, porque la medida verdadera de nuestro carácter está dada por los medios que estamos dispuestos a utilizar, no por los fines que proclamamos. ---------------------------------------- “You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it.
