Symbolic variables that display as a combination of Greek characters and normal letters in Live Scripts

I want to define a symbolic variable that displays as Δp in the Live Script output. I can define a symbol variable as Delta and it will display as Δ each time it's used, and I can do Delta_p and it will display as , but I'd like to have it display as a normal Δp. Is this possible?

EDIT:

Somewhat related question, why are superscripts and accents not working? I coppied and pasted this directly from https://www.mathworks.com/help/symbolic/add-suffixes-to-symbolic-results.html :

syms F__a F__b
Ftot = F__a + F__b

but it displays as . Also, F_dot displays as instead of and everything else only displays as subscripts. I don't see any related settings that are deactivated and I'm using R2018b. Is this a feature exclusive to 2019+ or something?

This was changed as of R2019a . F__a is F with superscript a and F_a is F with subscript a . F_dot and F_hat are recognized nicely. However, F_hat and F__hat both show up the same as each other, and F_dot and F__dot both show up the same as each other.

Thanks, so is there any way for me to have variables display in Live Script with superscripts or accents with 2018b? Also, is it possible for me to have a variable display as Δp?

[Walter Roberson]

dp = evalin(symengine, '`Δp`');
dp + 5

I cannot seem to get superscripts or accents to work in R2018a, except inside MuPAD notebooks. If you try something like

abc = evalin(symengine, 'Symbol::superScript(x, j)')

then you get the output

{x}^{j}

but

def = evalin(symengine, 'Symbol::delta')

does produce δ that is the same as

syms delta

[Walter Roberson]

Delta = evalin(symengine, 'Symbol::Delta')
dp = feval(symengine, '_concat', Delta, 'p')

For this to work, you need to go through the MuPAD Symbol:: construction step: without that, MuPAD will create a symbol Deltap instead of `Δp` that displays as
