Subject: 24.5; LaTeX input mode: add more blackboard bold characters
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2015 13:28:49 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

1. Enable LaTeX input mode: C-\ "TeX" RETURN
2. Typing \Bbb{R} should now result in ℝ,
   but (for example) \Bbb{C} does not result in ℂ.

I miss at least ℂ (field of complex numbers), 𝔽 (generic field), 𝕂
(generic field, German), ℍ (quaternions), 𝕀 (identity map), ℚ (field of
rational numbers), ℤ (ring of integers). Others might miss a few more
that are in common use, see [1].

The attached patch adds all blackboard bold capital characters and "1"
and "2" using the codepoints from the referenced Wikipedia article.
