-<h1><font size="-2">Hypertext Help with LaTeX</font><br><font color="#cc0000">Special Characters</font></h1>
-<p>
- The following characters play a special role in LaTeX and are called
- special printing characters, or simply special characters.
-<pre>
- # $ % & ~ _ ^ <tt>\</tt> { }
-</pre>
- Whenever you put one of these special characters into your file, you
- are doing something special, as described below.
-<p>
- If you simply want the character to be
- printed just as any other letter, include a <tt>\</tt> in front of the
- character. For example, <tt>\$</tt> will produce $ in your output.
-<br>
- Exceptions to this rule:
-<ul>
-<li><tt>\</tt> itself because
- <a href="ltx-181.html"><tt>\\</tt></a> has its own
- special meaning. Use <tt>$\backslash$</tt>.
-<li><tt>~</tt> and <tt>^</tt> because <tt>\~</tt> and <tt>\^</tt> produce
- <a href="ltx-401.html">accents</a>. Use
- <a href="ltx-342.html"><tt>\verb</tt></a> or the
- <a href="ltx-79.html">verbatim environment</a>.
-
-</ul>
-<h2>#</h2>
-The number (pound) sign is used to define use of arguments, for example,
-in the <a href="ltx-18.html"><tt>\newcommand</tt></a> command.
-<h2>$</h2>
-The dollar sign is used to delineate <a href="ltx-115.html#math">math</a> and
-<a href="ltx-421.html">displaymath</a> Enviroments.
-<h2>%</h2>
-The percent sign is used to insert <a href="ltx-434.html">Comments</a> in the
-input file, and to allow line breaks without generating a space.
-<h2>&amp;</h2>
-The ampersand is used to separate items in the <a href="ltx-202.html">array</a>
-and <a href="ltx-68.html">tabular</a> Enviroments.
-<h2>~</h2>
-The tilde generates a <a href="ltx-143.html">nonbreaking space</a>
-To create a tilde in the output, use
- <a href="ltx-342.html"><tt>\verb</tt></a> or the
- <a href="ltx-79.html">verbatim environment</a> (or cheat by using
- <tt>\~{}</tt>, i.e., placing a
- <a href="ltx-401.html">tilde accent</a> over a "blank" letter).
-<h2>_</h2>
-The underscore is used to create <a href="ltx-179.html">subscripts</a>
-<h2>^</h2>The carat (circumflex) symbol generates
-<a href="ltx-180.html">superscripts</a>.
- To create a carat in the output
- use <a href="ltx-342.html"><tt>\verb</tt></a> or the
- <a href="ltx-79.html">verbatim environment</a>.
-<h2>\ , { , and }</h2>
-The backslash and braces are used in
-<a href="ltx-17.html">command</a> definitions, for enclosing
-command arguments, and for delimiting scopes of
-<a href="declarations.html">declarations</a>.
