Link rot is evil. Archive everything. The keyboard is king. Correctness over performance. Canonicalize, normalize, deduplicate. Don't repeat yourself. UTF-8 > UTF-16. Use static typing: good for tooling. Re-use; don't re-invent. Correctness, then clarity, then concision and elegance. Play devil's advocate. First understand opponents' positions.

Superscript prime symbol That causes q to display as q^\[Prime]. But you could instead use InterpretationBox[SuperscriptBox[name, "\[Prime]"],
Symbol[name <> "\[Prime]"]]. |

What are \[InvisiblePrefixScriptBase] and \[InvisiblePostfixScriptBase]? @kguler: So it seems like the Prefix one is meant as an invisible base character for sub-/superscripts that are typeset before the conceptual base character. But the Postfix one is still a mystery. |

Implementing efficient multiple undo @Jérémie: Kernel sessions are computationally intensive. Undo would be a feature of the front-end. While graphics can use a fair amount of memory, that problem is surmountable (works fine in GIMP). |
