Summary description: Use Unicode combining accents in math input with LuaLaTeX
Announcement text:
luamathaccents lets you type accented mathematical symbols directly in your source file using Unicode combining characters. With the package loaded, the two-character sequence “x” + U+0302 (combining circumflex accent) – which your editor displays as an accented letter – is rewritten on input to “\hat x”, and likewise for two dozen other combining characters (grave, acute, tilde, macron, breve, dot, diaeresis, caron, vector arrow, harpoons, and more). The package uses LuaTeX’s process_input_buffer callback and therefore requires LuaLaTeX. This is the first release.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/luamathaccents The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/luamathaccents/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese

luamathaccents – Use Unicode combining accents in math input with LuaLaTeX
This package lets you type accented mathematical symbols directly in your source file using Unicode combining characters. With the package loaded, a base character followed by a supported combining character (for instance “x” + U+0302, combining circumflex accent) is rewritten on input to the corresponding accent command (\hat x), and likewise for two dozen other combining characters. The package uses LuaTeX’s process_input_buffer callback and therefore requires LuaLaTeX. Some of the rarer generated commands are provided by unicode-math.
