Ligature Request: [[ and ]]

Open Philip-Trettner opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

I would find ligatures for [[ and ]] useful.

They are for example used in C++11 Attributes.

Well, the problem with those will be that they’ll conflict with just normal brackets use (when semantically you don’t want to unify them). Also it wouldn’t work in sequences with 3+ brackets in a row. It’d be cool to have it for cases like C++11 attributes (or {{ }} for templates, for example) but there’s no clean way to get there

Urgs, I see what you mean. Yep I guess it can't be helped until we have a (far) more sophisticated way to tell them apart. Thanks for the fast response.

I might add them to the stylistic sets
