StrEntities extends the string literals provided by the StrLiterals package. It adds support for HTML, LaTeX, Unicode and Emoji entities, provided by the packages:
This adds four ways of representing characters in the literal string,
\:emojiname:
, \<latexname>
, \&htmlname;
and \N{UnicodeName}
.
This makes life a lot easier when you want to keep the text of a program in ASCII, and
also to be able to write programs using those characters that might not even display
correctly in their editor.
\<
followed by a LaTeX entity name followed by>
outputs that character or sequence if the name is valid.\:
followed by an Emoji name followed by:
outputs that character or sequence (if a valid name)\&
followed by an HTML entity name followed by;
outputs that character or sequence (if a valid name)\N{
followed by a Unicode entity name (case-insensitive!) followed by a}
