These are just some random notes that I have yet to organize.
TeX
- To ensure that a paragraph remains with the next one, use \nobreak.
- To collect a bunch of text into one vertical unit, use \vbox.
- To make color backgrounds and text, it's \usepackage{xcolor}.
- The underline feature is not liked by originators of TeX,
but if you have no underhanging letters like y, p, g, or q,
you can use \underline{text}.
- Greek characters are available via math mode, e.g. $\Delta$H.
- Arrows are $\rightarrow$, $\leftarrow, $\rightleftarrow$.
- Implication symbol is $\Rightarrow$.
- Degrees symbol is \textdegree.
LaTeX
- If you will use \includegraphics in TeTeX in Cygwin the best thing to do is to produce an EPS file in GIMP and specify that to \includegraphics. That version of TeTeX does not read PNG/JPG/GIF.
DeTeXify
A useful webpage lets you scribbed a symbol and guesses
which TeX/LaTeX symbol is most similar.
