@jmtd yes, only as ligatures (like e.g. JetBrains Mono has), and yes
@jmtd I'm in love with LaTeX, so being biased:
1. Monospace -- yes, please!
2. Symbols -- yes, this suggest someone is serious about typography,
3. Optional. Haven't seen this much, but maybe I'm just old.
@jmtd what I meant is, don't use the arrow unicode character, but instead, a font with ligatures; Otherwise, monospacing is useless.
@jmtd I cannot imagine writing such papers in something else than LaTeX 🙂
I think I'd prefer B if it hadn't gone so heavy with italics. I might be able to turn that off.
@jmtd wait. LaTeX? Aren't you doing code snippets? Or do you mean math?
@jmtd always monospaced
@jmtd then why use LaTeX?
@jmtd idk. I just don't think a syntax that is intended for math is what you need.
Markdown, compiled to a PDF (or whatever other format you use), perhaps?
@jmtd monospacing helps with chunking so makes skimming the code much more effective.
