Thanks for your pointing out my mistake, Julien.

<int><space|-0.5em> (without unit) works fine here but I'd prefer -0.8em or -0.9em.

It looks nicer. Of course, it's not Knuth's original...

Thanks, Julien.
 
In you macro, mm is a absolute length unit. I think we'd better use a rigid font-dependent length unit. 
In the TeXbook, Donald Knuth defined the double integral sign as follows:
\def\iint{\int\!\!\!\int}
Here \! which is a negative thin space equals -1/6 \quad with \quad being 1em. 
Thus, I want to define a \iint like this (inspired by your macro) :
<assign|iint|<int><space|-0.5emunit>>
What surprised me is that it is as same as \int\int. I don't know why :(

Actually this is not what I used to do.

I used to define :

<\assign | iint | <\int><\space | -3mm>>

<\assign | iiint | <\int><\space | -3mm><\int><\space | -3mm>>

For a double integral I would type : \iint \int and for a triple \iiint \int 

This combination to have the domain subscript at the right place. And this is probably the worst way to do it...

Hi everyone,
 
it seems that TeXmacs doesn't support amsmath, so I cannot use \iint \iiint for double integral and triple integral. How do you input the multiple integral sign? Could you tell me that?
 
Best regards,
Tim
