How about markup=TeX then?
markup is a good kwarg for this; it is descriptive and won't be
confused with anything else.

And yes, having a rcoption default seems like it could be handy.

Using this mathtext=True option (as opposed to using a delimiter that
TeX doesn't understand) or something else entirely, would certainly make
it easier to make usetex vs. not usetex more consistent.
I think so to.

If we go with another delimiter, there are others in TeX to choose

It seems that the improvements finally allow users to mix mathtext with
ordinary text, as in 'foo $a=b^c+d$ bar', which I believe has been
requested a lot. This is really cool, but I think it causes another

I would like to voice my opinion against this idea. I think the backward

The new mathtext with an underlying TeX-like box model is passing all
unit tests for all backends. I'm now at a point where I'd like to merge
this back into the trunk, but I'd like some feedback as to how to best
deal with the backward-incompatible change wrt font changes.

I'm working on some improvements to the mathtext engine on a branch.
Feel free to join in if curious, but I expect to break lots of things as
I go.

I've collected a bunch of math expressions from the source tree
