Just wondering if anyone knows how to add Unicode input in pluto.jl. For example, if I want to input a Unicode character for sigma, I would type \sigma in vs code, and the autocomplete will change it to σ. Any ideas how I could do the same in pluto.jl
You should be able to do the same in pluto: type \sigma, then hit TAB and it should change to σ.

It's the code I'm printing with node:
const m = `[38;5;1;48;5;16m TEST`
console.log(m)
output:
It changes the text color.
As you can see `` is a special char I don't understand(It's not being shown by the browser). How does it work?
Is there any alternative for ESC?
As #puucee already mentions they are terminal control characters. I find it surprising that it says ESC[ in the code as that won't be escaped in normal node. I suspect that maybe your IDE is converting the "true" escape character to ESC. Node does not support octal escapes (such as \033), but hexadecimal escapes. That is, you string should usually be like this:
console.log('\x1b[38;5;1;48;5;16m TEST \x1b[0m')
These are terminal control characters. They are often used e.g. for coloring the output. Some are non-printable. Backticks ` in your javascript example are called template literals.
I need to concatenate two strings within an R object: one is just regular text; the other is italicized. So, I tried a lot of combinations, e.g.
paste0(" This is Regular", italic( This is Italics))
The desired result should be:
This is Regular This is Italics
Any ideia on how to do it?
Thanks!
In plot labels, you can use expressions, see mathematical annotation :
plot(1,xlab=expression("This is regular"~italic("this is italic")))
To provide an string for which an HTML parser will recognise the need to render the text in Italics, wrap the text in <i> and </i>. For example: "This is plain text, but <i>this is in Italics</i>.".
However, most HTML processors will assume that you want your text to appear as-is and will escape their input by default. This means that the special meanings of certain characters - including < and > will be "turned off". You need to tell the processor not to do this. How you do that will depend on context. I can't tell you that because you haven't given me context.
Are you for example, writing to a raw HTML file? (You need do nothing.) Are you writing to a Markdown file? If so, how? In plain text or in a rendered chunk? Are you writing a caption to a graphic? (Waldi has suggested a solution.) Etc, etc....
In my data.frame I would like to add two variables, "A" and "B", whose values contain respectively an n with the i subscript and an n with the s subscript.
As I have understood so far, it's not possible to specify an expression for the values of a variable, and hence to add special characters it's necessary to use unicode symbols. Some of this unicodes work in R, as for example the greek letter "mu", identified with the unicode \U00B5, or numeric subscripts, as you can see in this reprex in your R console:
x <- data.frame("A" = c("\U00B5"),
"B" = c("B\U2082"))
print(x)
These unicodes work also if I decide to put this variable in a ggplot() object, because I will display the correct symbol ("mu" for example) on the axis text or the facets.
The problem is that when I do the same for the subscripts of i (unicode: \U1D62) and s (unicode: \u209B), R doesn't recognise the unicode and prints the whole string inside the variable name.
Do you know how I can resolve this issue and if this unicode works on every operating system?
Thanks
Is there a reason you can't use the expression() function? It seems this would solve your problem (at least concerning greek letters).
Here is the site i used to learn how to input greek letters into my R/ggplot-legends.

Altough it is not exactly the answer you look for, i still hope it helps!
If you are on Windows 10 recently updated with as of April 2018 Update:
Use the Windows key + '.' (e.g. hold together Windows Key plus period) in your text editor. This brings up Microsoft Emoji keyboard.
Select the Greek letters variable for your script.
The R Console will not accept the Greek letters as variables directly but only the from the editor script. Some of the Greek letters don't translate to English (like "µ" or "ß".) You can paste and copy them from ls() output to access. You may be able to use some math symbols as well for variable names. I can't however, get this to work with source(). That must be a text encoding problem.
(I am new with this) I see these weird black text-boxes and, as far as I know, they are ascii symbols, but I don't know how to see it in a "normal" view, if possible. Thanks in advance!
It was a bit hard to follow your link, I included the screenshot in your question. The ESC indicates a non-printable character. In this case it is the Escape character (ASCII 27), which from the screen shot appears to be part of escape sequences to change text color.
Unfortunately, Notepad++ does not have the means to render them as intended. One option is that you select one and find/replace with nothing. If you want to get rid of not only the ESC but also its associated "parameters" you can use this regular expression to find and replace them
\x1b[^m]*m
I have a TextInput field that should be restricted to either capital letters, lowercase letters, numbers and underscores. This is the code I'm trying to use to restrict characters:
restrict="\\A-Z\\a-z\\0-9\\ \\_\\-"
I'm using MXML for this Textinput component.
Unfortunately this does not restrict the \ character, which is the last character I'd like to restrict.
How can I add the backslash to the list of restricted characters?
Thanks
Stephen
Actually found the solution I've amended the restrict code to:
restrict="A-Za-z0-9 _\-"
I took out all the back slashes which I thought or was using as delimiters.
Works fine now.
