Hi David,

`\t` is a special character used for a tab. To get it to show properly
you need to 'escape' the first `\` (with another `\`). This should
give you the required behaviour:

```
show("$\\theta$")
```

You don't have this problem with `show("$\Theta$")` because `\T` is
not a special character.

Hope that help,
Vince
