I do this when writing λ, Δ, Φ, etc. in a document on a computer I don't own or when on my phone. It's genuinely faster than scrolling through Word's symbol list, for example.

You mean \lambda, \Delta and \Phi?

Not all of us are able to use superior tools like LaTeX for our documents, unfortunately

If you are using office, insert formula accepts latex code.

Good to know. Been learning some LaTeX from a friend recently, so I'll have to try this out.

You mean L^A^T~E~X?

(Btw for the uninitiated: The x is a chi, pronounced as in Koine/Modern Greek, like in British "hue", first make sure it's a "hj" and then squeeze it even tighter. At least according to Knuth it's a chi, that is.)

Today I learned that Markdown in Eternity can handle
