Firacode: Ligature request: Compound assignment operators

[ulope]

Support for all compound assignment operators would be nice.

For Python those are:

+=   # Addition
-=   # Subtraction
*=   # Multiplication
**=  # Power
/=   # Division
//=  # Integer division
%=   # Modulo
|=   # Or
^=   # Xor
&=   # And
<<=  # Left shift
>>=  # Right shift
@=   # Matrix multiplication (only used in third party packages)

Thanks for assembling the list! The problem with most of these is that it’s hard to figure out a good visual representation that makes sense, does not obscure original characters too much and is valuable enough.

I believe we already have /= ^=, <<=, >>= and |=

Block diagram?

where op is an operator, such as:

or

... only not ugly / lame.

heh, thinking out of the box :)

Or plagiarizing my old digital filters textbooks. Wrong-ly i might add, now that I look at it.

But that is literally the system diagram for what the operation does. Except the bottom line would be curvy and the diagram would be proportioned and laid out with a better trained eye.
