And how does one insert a ~ (tilde) It's available for download on ctan in english and french. (if you insert \~, it will give you a tilde as an accent over the following letter.) i believe \backslash may be used in math formulae, but not into text itself.

How to type these special letters from european languages in latex
How to look up a symbol
Escape character in latex in the itemize environment, how do i use the ampersand symbol & Without latex trying to use it as a command? Latex still supports it for one reason or another, but the proper one to use, as defined in the specifications, is \[ All this just means that they are not promising that $$ will always work
So it is technically possible (though unlikely in the near future), that compatibility with $$ is removed from latex and lots of your documents. There are a number of horizontal spacing macros for latex \, inserts a.16667em space in text mode, or \thinmuskip (equivalent to 3mu) in math mode There's an equivalent \thinspace macro
Is the negative equivalent to \,
There's an equivalent \negthinspace macro \> (or \:) inserts a.2222em space in text mode, or \medmuskip (equivalent to 4.0mu plus 2.0mu minus 4.0mu) in math mode. I want to get that fancy latex symbol to put in one of my documents but i cannot find it anywhere All searching for things like latex symbol have not resulted in the symbol but other symbols.

The document using imported graphics in latex and pdflatex contains a section about float placement and how to use those options, it's 17.2 figure placement
