the example was not fair though as it wasn't using latex... this one is now:


from matplotlib import rcParams
params = {'backend': 'ps',
          'text.usetex': True,
          'ps.usedistiller': 'xpdf',
          }
rcParams.update(params)

from matplotlib.pyplot import *

text(0.5, 0.5, r'a \newline{} b')
savefig('test.eps')


it does not crash (the version with '\\' does) but does not produce a
line break, either...

best,
sebastian.
