assume I want to replace the command \tilde by \widetilde in my latex file through all the file. Is there a way to do so such that the change affects all the text but avoiding to make all the changes by hand?

    \renewcommand{\tilde}{\widetilde} on preamble. – Sigur May 11 '15 at 14:07
  • Welcome to TeX.TX! Search and replace? ;-) Brute force: \renewcommand{\tilde}[1]{\widetilde[#1]} or a \let statement –  May 11 '15 at 14:07

    You might also \let\oldtilde\tilde before redefining it to wide tilde. That way, if you ever needed a single exception to the rule, you could call on \oldtilde and get the original behavior. – Steven B. Segletes May 11 '15 at 14:11

    I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is solved by comments. – Zarko Nov 15 '16 at 01:14
