The next step is to learn about "diacriticals", which
is a big word for funny marks on symbols, like
a bar over something ($x bar$), or a tilde or hat on
something ($x tilde ,~a hat$), or perhaps a dot
or dotdot ($T dot ,~U dotdot$), or even an
underlining like $abc under$.
These are all easy. Each funny character
has a name, and all you have to do is put the name
after the thing you want the character on.
Thus
x hat makes $x hat$
y bar makes $y bar$
T dot makes $T dot$
x tilde makes $x tilde$ (notice that we spell tilde)
u dotdot makes $u dotdot$ (looks ugly on a terminal)
.br
and
i under makes $i under$.
Except for "bar" and "under", these are almost always
attached to just a single letter.
If you want to put a bar over something longer, like
${2 pi +1} bar$, simply enclose the thing in braces:
{2 pi +1} bar
Modify "Example" to produce output that looks like this,
then type "ready".

Let $x bar$, $y bar$, and $z bar$ be the components of $pi bar$.
Let ${alpha +1} bar$ be the mean value of $alpha hat$.

and get the spaces right around the dollar signs.
