[lyx-users] Use of _ in variable names in math mode.

1999-12-06 Thread Bobby D. Bryant

I am setting some equations that refer to the handling of some data that
my readers will be familiar with, so I would like to use the actual
variable names produced by a certain simulator. Some of the variable
names have underscores embedded in them, e.g. dl1.miss_rate. However,
when I try to enter them in display mode math, the _ is interpreted as a
switch to subscript entry mode. Math mode text does not seem to work
either.

Is there a way to use the _ in equations without getting blank spaces
around it?

Thanks,

try   \_   in mathmode (backspace-underline)
