Index If you’re having trouble locating a symbol, try looking under “T” for “\text. . .”. Many text-mode commands begin with that prefix. Also, accents are shown over/under a gray box (e.g., “ á ” for “\’”). Some symbol entries appear to be listed repeatedly. This happens when multiple packages define identical (or nearly identical) glyphs with the same symbol name. 17 Symbols \" (ä) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 \# (#) . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9, 114 \$ ($) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9, 114 \% (%) . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9, 114 \& (&) . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9, 114 \’ (á) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 ( (() . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 54 ( (() . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 55 ) ()) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 54 ) ()) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 55 * (*) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 \, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 113 \- (-) . . . . . . . . . . . . . 115, 116 \.
