It does not contain letters and letter-like symbols (like the upside down $\Omega$ in {\tt lasy}); those characters will be provided in different styles ({\tt teletype}, roman, {\sl slanted} and {\ssf sans-serif}) as different fonts, to make it easier to combine them with the existing characters. Some characters were just copied from the {\tt lasy.mf} file, others where modified from the {\tt mf} files of the standard \TeX\ fonts, and some were designed from scratch. An extension to PLAIN-\TeX\ for using the fonts is included in the file {\tt wasyfont.tex}. These bindings are just meant as an example how to implement the {\tt wasy} characters into your document. They may change in a future release of a {\tt wasyfont.tex} file together with extended {\tt wasy} fonts (however, the positions of the presently existing characters in the {\tt wasy} font will not change, so this file as well as your own bindings will be compatible with any future release). A list of characters with their bindings in {\tt wasyfont.tex} follows. Some symbols which are already available from standard \TeX\ fonts are also included for comparison; these symbols are marked with $^*$. general symbols $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr male&\male &female&\female \cr currency&\currency &clock&\clock \cr lozenge&\lozenge &kreuz&\kreuz \cr smiley&\smiley &blacksmiley&\blacksmiley \cr frownie&\frownie &sun&\sun \cr checked&\checked &brokenvert&\brokenvert \cr diameter&\diameter &invdiameter&\invdiameter \cr phone&\phone &recorder &\recorder \cr bell&\bell &lightning &\lightning \cr pointer&\pointer \cr} $$ diagrams $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr photon &\photon &gluon &\gluon \cr} $$ music notes $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr eighthnote&\eighthnote &quarternote&\quarternote \cr halfnote&\halfnote &fullnote&\fullnote \cr twonotes&\twonotes \cr} $$ electrical engineering $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr AC &\AC &HF &\HF \cr VHF &\VHF \cr} $$ APL $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr APLup &\APLup &APLdown &\APLdown \cr APLbox &\APLbox &APLinv &\APLinv \cr APLleftarrowbox &\APLleftarrowbox&APLrightarrowbox &\APLrightarrowbox\cr APLuparrowbox &\APLuparrowbox&APLdownarrowbox &\APLdownarrowbox\cr APLinput&\APLinput &APLminus$^*$&\APLminus \cr APLlog &\APLlog &APLstar &\APLstar \cr APLvert$^*$&\APLvert{\ } & APLvert\char`\{\\APLdown\char`\} &\APLvert{\APLdown} \cr APLnot$^*$&\APLnot{\ } & APLnot\char`\{\\APLdown\char`\} &\APLnot{\APLdown} \cr APLnot\char`\{\\land\char`\} &\APLnot{\land} & APLnot\char`\{\\lor\char`\} &\APLnot{\lor} \cr APLcirc$^*$&\APLcirc{\ } & APLcirc\char`\{\\bot\char`\} &\APLcirc{\bot} \cr notbackslash &\notbackslash & notslash &\notslash \cr APLcomment &\APLcomment \cr} $$ astronomy $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr ascnode&\ascnode &descnode&\descnode \cr aries&\aries &astrosun$^*$&\astrosun \cr newmoon &\newmoon &fullmoon &\fullmoon \cr leftmoon &\leftmoon &rightmoon&\rightmoon \cr mercury &\mercury &venus &\venus \cr mars &\mars &jupiter &\jupiter \cr saturn &\saturn &uranus &\uranus \cr neptune &\neptune &pluto &\pluto \cr earth &\earth \cr} $$ geometrical shapes $$ \halign{&\tt\\# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr hexstar &\hexstar &varhexstar&\varhexstar \cr davidsstar &\davidsstar&APLstar&\APLstar \cr Circle &\Circle &CIRCLE &\CIRCLE \cr Leftcircle &\Leftcircle &LEFTCIRCLE &\LEFTCIRCLE \cr Rightcircle&\Rightcircle &RIGHTCIRCLE &\RIGHTCIRCLE \cr LEFTcircle &\LEFTcircle &RIGHTcircle &\RIGHTcircle \cr LEFTarrow &\LEFTarrow &RIGHTarrow &\RIGHTarrow \cr UParrow &\UParrow &DOWNarrow &\DOWNarrow \cr Box &\Box &APLbox &\APLbox \cr XBox &\XBox&Bowtie &\Bowtie \cr Diamond &\Diamond &octagon &\octagon \cr hexagon &\hexagon &varhexagon &\varhexagon \cr pentagon &\pentagon \cr} $$ general math \& physics $$ \halign{&\tt# \hfil&#\qquad\hfil\cr \\varangle&\varangle &\$\\invneg\$ &$\invneg$\cr \\leftturn &\leftturn &\\rightturn &\rightturn \cr \\diameter &\diameter &\\therefore&\therefore \cr} $$ math operators $$ \halign{&\tt\$a\\# b \hfil&$a#b$\qquad\hfil\cr ocircle&\ocircle &logof&\logof \cr oplus$^*$&\oplus &otimes$^*$&\otimes \cr le$^*$ &\le &ge$^*$&\ge \cr apprle &\apprle &apprge&\apprge \cr lhd &\lhd &rhd &\rhd \cr unlhd &\unlhd &unrhd&\unrhd \cr LHD &\LHD &RHD &\RHD \cr sqsubset&\sqsubset &sqsupset&\sqsupset \cr sqsubseteq$^*$&\sqsubseteq &sqsupseteq$^*$&\sqsupseteq \cr propto$^*$&\propto &varpropto &\varpropto \cr leadsto &\leadsto \cr} $$ integrals (text style) $$ \halign{&\tt\$\\#\_a\char`\^b f(x)dx \hfil&$#_a^b f(x)dx$\qquad\hfil\cr varint&\varint &iint&\iint \cr iiint&\iiint &varoint&\varoint \cr oiint&\oiint \cr} $$ integrals (display style) $$ \varint \iint \iiint \varoint \oiint $$ With the control sequence {\tt\\newpropto} you can change the proportional sign to the thin {\tt wasy} symbol ($\varpropto$), which is more distinct from alpha ($\alpha$) then the default symbol ($\propto$).
