I'm writing the best Latex generating Python program ever, but I'm using special characters that you plobably don't have natively on your keyboard layout, namely
I intend not to be the sole user of this program, so if I distribute it one day or the other, I will probably require that users be able to enter these characters in their documents. My question is Suppose a program requires you to enter the characters « ¦ » or …, would that be a serious problem to you, considering your OS or your favorite editor ?
For example, let's take users with a Linux/KDE setup without « on their keyboard. They could define a global shortcut that would run the command
>>> "\u00AB\u00BB\u00A6\u2026" '«»¦…'I use a Bépo layout, so these characters are immediately available to me.
