Although real hardcore emacs zealots would do it like this: C-u 2 C-x 8 RET KANNADA LETTER TTHA C-b _ and spacemacs folks: 2 C-x 8 RET KANNADA LETTER TTHA h _

After 'h', i need 'a' to switch to append mode, right?

spfeiffer19:03:39

To insert the underscore?

spfeiffer19:03:29

But c-x 8 is crazy stuff ☺️

ag20:03:25

aww... shit.. yeah, you're right... missed that one. damn it

ag20:03:32

yeah C-x 8 scares the shit out of me sometimes... last week our designers used numero sign (instead of pound) for "Number of" thing, everyone was like: "so what's the correct unicode, how do we show it on the page?", and I'm like "hold my beer... C-x 8 RET NUMERO SIGN... done"

spfeiffer20:03:37

Numero sign? Never heard of it ☺️

spfeiffer20:03:30

I am scared how much i do not know about Emacs…

ag21:03:34

don't worry, I wake up in cold sweat almost every night thinking I will never learn Emacs

ag17:03:41

If you're not doing crazy things in Emacs - then you're using it wrong

Wow, I did not know about C-x 8. Interesting. I might have to play around with that, but then again I might just stick with SPC i u (a.k.a. helm-ucs) for now.

ag23:03:06

holy shit @jeff.terrell I had no idea that thing exists

jeff.terrell23:03:28

😆 Pretty cool huh?

ag23:03:36

yeah, it's basically improved version of C-x 8 RET
