Thanks to all who replied to my request. The first answer is that there is
no really easy way to do it. But the following solutions work :
1) Put a tilde on a white space :
\~\
2) Use the number of the character :
\char'176
3) Use the mathematical tilde without argument
$\tilde{}$ or even, to have roman font : $\rm \tilde{}$
4) Use the \verb command
\verb|~|
NB : it gives a \tt tilde not a \rm tilde !!!
5) Sometimes, you may want to use
$\sim$
but this gives a large tilde...
