latexgreek(s)

function s = latexgreek(s)
% Replace all recognized Greek letters with their LaTeX equivalents.
% This function replaces a wider range of letters than does the MatLab
% built-in function texlabel.
%
% Input arguments:
% s:
%    a character string to scan for Greek letter names
%
% See also: texlabel
