Vim supports entering quite a lot of symbols that don't exist on most keyboards (like the integral symbol.) I always have to look up how and that forces people to use editors which support that.

>And, yes, me too: I wrote this in vi(1), which is why the article does not have all the fancy Unicode glyphs in the first place.

Maybe vi doesn't but as I said, I've used them in vim. Also, the title calls out terminals but I don't have any VTE software installed that doesn't have Unicode support.
