Hello,
The current unicode standards contains some superscript punctuation
and mathematical symbols, in
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2070.pdf . However, it does not
contain "SUPERSCRIPT COMMA". This would be useful for representing
some technical text, for instance some chemical names. See this page:
http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iupac/vonBaeyer/vb6.html the text starting
with '2.2.1.0' below the first picture. For the '2,6' part, the numbers
can be displayed as superscript numbers, but not the coma. As far as I
know this would be the only character missing to properly represent
all chemical names (which is part of my work).
Did I miss a correct way to represent this text? Or is there a chance
superscript comma could be added to a future version?
Best regards,
Daniel Bonniot
