Hi all,

All this talk about symbols reminded me of a package called TexToIDL that
I found somewhere on the web. If you like TeX, this is a really neat
program written by Matthew W. Craig that lets you specify symbols using
TeX format. For example, if I wanted to XYOUTS the symbol for chi^2,

XYOUTS, X, Y, TexToIDL('\chi^2')

This is *much* easier than !7V!U2!N I think ;-) The documentation states
translation is also available for PostScript hardware font.

If anyone is interested and cannot find it on the web, I can make it
available from my web page.

PS I don't think the angstrom symbol is available with the package :-)
