I needed the LaTeX code for the sign that is called the "promille" sign in Dutch. It's the sign like the percent sign "%" ("procent" in Dutch), but with two circles at the bottom. Googling for "latex promille" was not very successful, so I thought this would be a good botsnack.
(Googling for "permille" or "(parts) per thousand", yield better results however.)
Anyway, I found two solutions:
\textperthousandfrom the packagetextcomp, also provides\textpertenthousandbut both only work in text mode, not in math mode.\permilfrom the packagewasysym, works in both text mode as in math mode.
That's all folks
useful tool

Thanks, works perfectly...
I've been looking for this char for the ages!
First Google hit + perfect solution (German!)
As mentioned before, this is the same in German and the wasysym was needed for \Smiley anyway ...
Thanks and all the best,

Thanks!
Well, now it is the first google hit when searching for ''LaTeX promille'' (it's the same in Swedish) :)
The second option worked fine for me (wasysym package)!
