Update hbar to U+210F from U+0127 #38

Open universemaster opened 1 year ago

universemaster commented 1 year ago

The correct unicode character is ℏ https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+210F "Planck Constant Over Two Pi".

However, previously the character was set to ħ https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+0127 "Latin Small Letter H with Stroke".
