Summary: TeX interface

Initial Comment:
I'm having a lot of trouble adding titles to graphs with symbols that TeX wants 
to interpret.  Is there a good way to title a graph ("Data from file" + path) 
where the path name contains both back slashes and underscores?

You can use pyx.text.escapestring() for the conversion.

Message:
As PyX depends on TeX / LaTeX to create text, the easiest solution will be
to convert the string into a form acceptable to TeX / LaTeX.  You could
define a function to do this.
For me, the following works perfectly:

from pyx import *

def CleanString(s):
  s = a.replace("\\",r"\textbackslash ")
  s = s.replace("_","\\_")
  return s

text.set(mode="latex")
c = canvas.canvas()
c.text(0,0,CleanString("a\\b_c"))
c.writePDFfile("test")
