Re: How to search in digraphs?

rfc1345 is worth checking at times, but its digraph set is different
from Vim's, and that document does not display the characters
themselves.

digraph.txt or, more specifically, :help digraph-table only show part
of the available digraphs (less than a half, I think).

I don't know of a best option than using the :digraphs command.
You can find there all available digraphs, and it is immediately seen
which of the respective characters are correctly displayed on your
system. For more convenient browsing of the table, redirect the
output of :digraphs and read it in Vim as normal text.

Specifically for typing × I use the /\ digraph.
