Angstrom symbol under IDL 2.x - FAQ? [message #1221] Wed, 23 June 1993 09:01 Go to previous message

Hello, IDL users -

In IDL version 1, I had worked out a Hershey character string to show
the Angstrom symbol:
angstrom = '!S!U! !M%!RA!N'

This uses the positioning command for a half-space, '! ', which does not exist
in IDL 2.x and higher versions. We are currently using IDL 2.4.0, and so
cannot access the ISO Latin ASCII character set. Has anyone worked out the
Hershey string for the Angstrom symbol under IDL 2.x?

Thanks,
__.
