This is only because you said it did't work, otherwise I would
not have had the idea to look into these dark details ;-).

That is really strange. On my machine, if you go in the 'share'
directory where the current install is located, as soon as the
'symbol-unicode-oneway.scm' file is modified, it immediately
works (modulo relaunching TeXmacs).

The usual trick... :-). Does it work, after that ?

It should be noted that with the new lazy loading of Scheme
module, your change doesn't works immediately (in fact,
symbol-unicode-oneway.scm is one of the last loaded
modules). This could also be a cause of the observed
non-working.

OK, I add this patch on my list.
