Description

Hi F# uses additional ligatures, would be cool if those could get added.
I tried to map them to TeX symbols on http://milde.users.sourceforge.net/LUCR/Math/mathpackages/stmaryrd-symbols.pdf

  • "Banana clip" (| ...|) = double round braces - Tex: \limg \rimg
  • Double square brackets [| ... |] - Tex: \llbracket \rrbracket
  • Annotations [< ... >] - Not sure how these could look
