	guys,

	i hope this isn't TOO  far off-topic, but is there an any that let you 
	create mathematical symbols on a GUI frame?  my handwriting left-handed is
	(and has been) lousy.  in college i created my own method of typinf symbols
	on my typewriter.  eg. to depict the integral from 0 to 2-pi was:

	b=0/t=2pi where the slash represente the long S-shape integral symbol.

	now that graphs are pretty easy to drop-and-drag, are there any math symbols
	tools that allow manipulation of greek (and roman) characters to actually do
	math with?  or is this still aways off...?  

	gary
