what's a "numeric character"?
- in a list atom, space is the delimiter, so if you want an actual
space it has to be escaped;
i'm not really sure about this to be honest. i agree that there should be a visual distinction between the atom delimiter and the sapce (within a symbol).
intuitively i would prefer something less ugly than '\ ', e.g. "␣". but what if the user actually wants the character "␣"?
probably the best would be to have delimiters a display property of the list-box, rather than of the text itself. as in the attached mockup.
