[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39831] New Tex interpreter requires delimiters around characters

[Michael Goffioul]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #39831 (project octave):

This is an annoyance. This means the lexer must be aware of the available
symbols and break "\musec" accordingly.

My first idea would then be to hardcode all symbols directly in the lexer.
That is, instead of having a generic lexer rule like:

\\[a-zA-Z]+

I must list all possible symbols.

Any better idea is welcome.
