Natural 5 is 15 years old!

Is pi a standard ASCII symbol? I don’t think that you can do this without at least specifying a different code page, and, as I recall, code pages were introduced with Unicode support in Natural 6.3.

With Natural 6.3, I t’s simple to use Unicode characters.

DEFINE DATA LOCAL
1 #PI (U1) INIT <U'?'>
END-DEFINE
INPUT
      'Pi:' #PI (AD=M)
            #PI (AD=O IP=F EM=HH)
END
Pi: ? C003

Of course, entering those characters on a map via a keyboard is a problem.
