I presume you mean IDL, and not Latex, since this is an
IDL newsgroup:
k_hat = = '!3!sk!r!u^!n'

No, of course not. (And I don't think the TexToIDL
package does it anyway.) :-)
Cheers,

Thats right -- textoidl does mostly just greek letter, subscripts and
superscripts...it's not a general purpose latex formatting package
(although I think many people, myself included, would LOVE to have that
functionality!).
