If I try to write this (there are double back ticks around the latex expressions but can make it show here)
Select map projection. lon\_0 \yen The following character determines det
I get. Note that the yen symbol is rendered right but not the subscript.
How do people write sub/super scripts in docs (Documenter here)?
Why did you escape the _
? Without that it works as expected for me.

Well because I saw it here (julia docs), that’s how it works on REPL and because that worked with the \yen
case. But you are right, no escaping works (thought I had tried that too)
I can’t find anything about subscripts on that page.
\yen
is a latex command so not sure how that relates to _
.
_0 is a latex command too. We can find it in that table, though it’s not obvious because it’s a very long table. There is one row that says
U+02080 ₀ _0 Subscript Zero / Subscript Digit Zero
Yea, and it works, but you added an additional \
that breaks it.
Did you mean to link to Unicode Input · The Julia Language then? That is for input in the REPL which is not latex.
I added the \ because it’s in that page (it was removed in the copy paste).
My point is that if \yen
works, it makes all the sense to expect that \_0
works too (considering what we see in that table, be it for REPL only or not)
But that table is for tab completions in the REPL, and between
`` you should write latex. The case for \yen
just happens to coincide.
OK, bad luck in my picked example then. Anyway, I got the subscripts which the important.
Thanks.
