On Digik*y it looks like one can get a:

schmitt inverter
schmitt NAND
schmitt OR

How come no NOR, XOR, XNOR being stocked...??

Note: I haven't looked yet to see if those gates exist at other
sources.

I often take the approach "If they don't have it... it's too difficult
to get."

Sorry, but Schmitt trigger inputs weren't
created for those parts. BTW, recognizing
Schmitt was a bloke, we capitalize his name,
hence Schmitt inverter, not schmitt inverter.

But we don't capitalize watt, ohm, volt, or any other SI unit named
for a person, in deference to the person. Strange.

Not the unit names, but the symbols:-

Unit symbols are printed in lower-case letters except that:
(a) the symbol or the first letter of the symbol is an upper-case
letter when the name of the unit is derived from the name of a person;

and

(b) the recommended symbol for the liter in the United States is L
[see Table 6, footnote (b)].
