Using lambda (λ) sign leads to syntax error #2

Closed leotaku closed 6 years ago

leotaku commented 6 years ago

The documentation mentions that either a backslash or a greek lambda symbol can be used to denote a lambda expression. Using the later one, in my case, leads to a syntax error.

 Syntax error

As a short look at the recent commit history reveals, this has been fixed after the last release. Sorry for the clutter.

Indeed, before you needed the lambda in a greek encoding (iso-8859-7), now the lambda in utf8 should work.
