Hi, what I would like to see is the contraction operator, for example for differential forms: \omega _| X . := is definitely very welcome, as would be =: and :<=> jürgen pöschel Uni Stuttgart Can add these. Do you mean literally :<=> or is that an abbreviation for one or more symbols?

1. Although I'm happy to get guest and/or anonymous suggestions, it really helps if there is an email address, so that I can send questions I might have. 2. I am making one more font (actually two, since it'll have a bold version), called Math Curly \mcurly. Samples can be seen at http://ww2.pctex.c...

OK. I presume you want a regular d, not a barred partial sign ("eth").

is a mean value integral "\mint".

OK, but perhaps it should be called \barint?

Hello Michael, I would like to see \& as a big math operator with limits, of variable size for text- and display modes. Should it look just like a Time &? Although \& would be a convenient name for the user, it would be simpler to implement things if it had another name, like \ampersand...

Michael, Here are several things I came across: 1. \rightarrow with \sim on top of it (looks like \simeq but with an arrow) 2. \ast as a big math operator with limits (variable sizes: for in-text mode and display) 3. variable-length corner ( __| ) which works similar to \framebox (vertical line is ...

We are making a new version of the MTPro fonts, which will have Times-Italic-like characters designed into them, so that there will be no need for virtual fonts. This is a good opportunity to ask for new characters, etc. PLEASE , IF YOU SUBMIT A REQUEST AS A GUEST, ADD AN EMAIL ADDRESS, SO THAT I CA...
