I want to use some symbols in restructuredText; how can I do this? (e.g. → in Markdown yields the “→” symbol as defined in the list of standard HTML character entities — see also w3c reference)
Note: I don’t want to require math formula support as a dependency.
You have a large number of defined symbols via the “substitution” operator.
You have to include the definitions via
.. include:: <isonum.txt>or something similar.Most of them have the form
|larr|or|rarr|.They are defined in the
docutils.parsers.rst.includeinstallation directory. There are dozens of files which define numerous Unicode characters.
