If you want to get really fancy, you could do what Wikimedia does:

u'\u221e' vs u'\N{INFINITY}' should make no noticible run-time
difference--they both specify exactly the same stri

Never mind, works in a Text widget, my bad.
Why is it so slow? (RH Linux, 2.4.20, 1.6Ghz AMD)
3/4 second slower to display widget w/unicode,
even if I encode u'\u221e'
Works though, this is great.

So far, on RedHat Linux:
I have used your method successfully in a Label
and in Canvas Text. very slow.??
In A Text box I just get \N{INFINITY}.
But thanks, I will investigate Text Box more.

I wrote the following code:
import Tkinter
t = Tkinter.Label()
t.configure(
text=u"As the function approaches \N{INFINITY}, \N{HORIZONTAL
ELLIPSIS}")
t.pack()
t.mainloop()
It worked for me on Windows NT 4.0 with Python 2.4, and on RedHat 9 with
a self-compiled Python 2.
