Re: Begriffsschrift

Hello Frabjous,

Thank you for your brilliantly detailed post. I have been out of action for a few days and am deeply sorry I have not been here to thank you sooner. I should have made sure to check sooner. :oops:

Your solution looks excellent, and I really look forward to attempting to employ it ...

Re: Begriffsschrift

Hi,
I've figured out the answer to my second question - it was pretty obvious actually! Still stuck on question number one though.
Thanks!

Re: Begriffsschrift

Also, a second question, is it possible to use the begriff notation without automatically going onto a new line - namely, can we have <text><begriff><text> rather than
<text>
<begriff>
<text>
?
Thanks for the help!

Hey meho_r,

So thanks alot.

Begriffsschrift

Hello, I hope this is an appropriate place to post.

I'm using the begriff package for Frege.
I have one tiny snag with it, that I was hoping someone might have a solution to.
Now, it is a small problem, so it's not the end of the world if I can't solve it, but if someone happens to have an answer ...

Re: finding/importing symbols

Thanks again frabjous,

That's brilliant.

I adapted your newcommand like this:

\newcommand{\ddM}[1]{\ensuremath{\overline{\overline{\mathrm{#1}}}}}

so that I can pass it a text variable.

Thanks! :D

Re: finding/importing symbols

P.S. I have already checked "The Comprehensive Latex Symbols List" but cannot locate what I am looking for (perhaps it is there however and I have searched badly).
But basically, I have tried quite hard to find this symbol, so I would be very grateful if someone was able to help.
Thanks

Re: finding/importing symbols

Hello again,

Further to my previous questions I have one niggling issue remaining.
When I want to double overline e.g. M, I am doing this
$\overline{\overline{M}}$
It works re: the double overhead but it is putting M in italics.
The same happens for the single overline
$\overline{M}$
Any ideas on ...

Re: finding/importing symbols

Thank you frabjous,
1) I did not think you could do the overline twice, thanks!
2) Yep, it is indeed /sim!
3) I only need the basic candlestick stuff at the moment, no ancestrals even, so this package should work fine!
You've been really helpful. Thank you so much for both the direct advice and the ...

finding/importing symbols

Hello there, I am new to latex and would greatly appreciate some basic advice, whether directly, or by way of some useful links, or even both.
I have just downloaded teXnicCenter and the first thing I have noticed is that it does not seem to be immediately possible to double overline a symbol. I ...
