list of html entities
While creating posts for this bugx, a static site generated with Hugo [1], the images are created in SVG format using Inkscape, which is not so easy dealing with symbols, e.g greek letters [2], or other HTML entities [3]. That is the only reason why this post is created, so the symbols can be copied from this post and then pasted to a text in Inkscape.
greek letters#
The HTML code for greek letter are available in the two forms [4], &#nnn or &name;, where the second one is used here.
Tabel 1. Greek letters in lowercase and uppercase.
