[Gnuplot-info] Tilde and hat directly above a letter

[Carpenter A. <aca...@bu...>]

I would be very grateful if someone could show me how to put a hat (^)
directly above w and a tilde (~) directly above D. In Latex one would 
write $\hat{w}$ and $\tilde{D}$. I tried

   set label "\\{\303{w}_{k,16}\\}@^{16}_{k=1} at 0.694, 0.846 left

but I got the hat on the lefthand side of w and not directly above w.
However, I want "^" directly above w and "~" directly above D. Thanks
for any help.

Amos.
