I've acquired a preference for txt2tags, which will output LaTeX as one of its formats. You can also put raw LaTeX in there if you need to. ;) I use that when I have to put math in anything (although I'm slowly creating txt2tags macros that do the conversion for me, with the hope of some day writing a python script to scan for those and render images for other targets, like xhtml).
