Subject: Re: Subscript with parenthesis
Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2023 19:02:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3cb9366e-7915-481d-be74-1953a8dd5847@app.fastmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <bc80cc61-d88a-484c-beb3-7872bba5000f@app.fastmail.com>

Some additional things I'm noticing:

- when using parenthesis, :use-brackets-p is nil, so they're not equivalent to curly braces.
- it does not support objects inside the parenthesis, just plain text, which again means they're not equivalent to braces.
- it, however, seems to require that the parenthesis are balanced because this test document does NOT contain a subscript:
```
foo_(b(ar)
```
which is closer to the curly braces requirement since that seems to be the only part of the subscript/superscript documentation that mentions needing balance.
