BTW, although the original generation of the book seems to have taken
care of the underscore by means of an awk script, I consider the
following a bug. It should be escaped by a backslash like this: \_.

(5) -> )set output algebra off
(5) -> )set output tex on
(5) -> escape()

$$
_
\leqno(5)
$$

Same here.

(6) -> 1.2345678901234567890123

$$
1.2345678901_23456789
\leqno(6)
$$

Furthermore:

(1) -> "a_b_"\"

   (1)  "a_b"\"
$$
\mbox{\tt "a_b"\"}
\leqno(1)
$$

That is wrong in many places.

I've fixed that here:
https://github.com/hemmecke/fricas/commits/escape-in-tex-context

With that the output is as follows:

(1) -> escape()

   (1)  _
$$
\_
\leqno(1)
$$

                                                              Type:
Character
(2) -> 1.2345678901234567890123

   (2)  1.2345678901_23456789
$$
1.2345678901_23456789
\leqno(2)
$$

                                                                  Type:
Float
(3) -> "a_b_"\"

   (3)  "a_b"\"
$$
\verb#"a_b"\"#
\leqno(3)
$$

The use of \verb is perhaps questionable, since I don't know whether it
is plain TeX, but one can certainly provide such a macro in plain TeX.
