Finding Missing Symbols in LaTeX: An Enhanced Primer

[rude man]

TL;DR

Where to get additional LaTex symbols

E very once in a while I see a post in which LaTex symbols appear that are absent from the primer offered in PF.
Examples:
\bf A in lieu of the awkward \mathbf A
$\ell$ for script l. There must olbviously be a list of the 28 letters that can be scripted. The font section in my LaTex primer is non-functional.

I'm not a software type so can't write Java or anything fancy like that. I would just like to see an enhanced LaTex primer.

The primer is just a primer, intended to get people who have never used $\LaTeX$ to be able to use the functionality at PF.

If you want more information, you have to look at general resources for $\LaTeX$, such as
