Re^3: Perl 6 and Unicode Operators

This is very true. I was actually thinking about the << problem the other day. I'm almost positive I can set up vi to automatically replace << with Ť, and I would bet that other major editors would be able to do the same. But yes, the problem comes when you add unicode characters, and suddenly I would have to add more substitutions to my vim files.

With vi, you can press C-k key key to do a compose action -- C-k < < is Ť. However, this is still a lot more keys then <<, which works just as well.

with vim and maybe vi... you can also enable digraphs with `:set digraph` and then you can use `< <Backspace> <`. you can even hold down the shift key through the whole sequence. and just in case, `:digraphs` will get you the default list and `:help digraphs` will tell you just about everything you need to kow.
