How to write strings in LaTex?

Hey does anyone know if it's possible to write strings in LaTex on TSR? I looked it up online and it says I have to use \def\Comment1{Example} but when I applied it to TSR it didn't work.

Am I doing it wrong or is there just not a way to write strings using LaTex on TSR?

Just tpe out the LaTeX string that you're intending to post and then put [noparse][/noparse] tags around it.

put a \ between each word so it will be like this:
hello there hello\ there

Unparseable latex formula:

\mathfrak{ hello}}



Why do colours not work though?
Like {\color{Red} hello} should give something like hello, but instead we get hello{\color{Red} hello}. :frown:
