[comp.text.tex] Creating New Math accents

nick@candide.berkeley.edu (Nick Socci) (07/13/90)

I need to accent letters with a tensor sysmbol in Tex. The tensor
symbol is similary to \vec EXCEPT that I need to use a double headed
arrow ie: $\tensor A$ should give
	
		<->
		 A

There is a double arrow symble in the plain text fonts, but using mathaccent
will not work (it ends up going through the letter instead of above). 

Non Metafont solutions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

How about overstriking a superscript double arrow:

$\rlap{A}^{^\leftrightarrow}$
