Hi Carsten,
Thanks for folding in this feature.
I'm having some weird issues using the new entities display. The
entities are not fontified in my org-mode buffers despite having set the
org-pretty-entities variable to t. However if I search
`isearch-forward-regexp' for the "\\" character in the buffer then all
of the entities are displayed (e.g. \sum is replaced with ∑).
Any idea why the entity display is only working during a search?
Thanks -- Eric
