`tex' does not translate `and', `or', `not' and `#' to valid TeX expressions. Currently we get this:

tex('(a # b)); => $$a # b$$ tex('(a and b)); => $$a(\and)b$$ tex('(a or b)); => $$a(\or)b$$ tex('(not a)); => $$\not a$$

Which are all invalid.

`\not', `\and', `\or' and `#' should be replaced with `\neg', `\land', `\lor' and `\ne'. Additionally `or' and `and' should be tex-infix not tex-nary.

After applying the attached patch we get this:

tex('(a # b)); => $$a\ne b$$ tex('(a and b)); => $$a\land b$$ tex('(a or b)); => $$a(\lor )b$$ tex('(not a)); => $$\neg\,a$$

The parens in `or' still aren't quite right, but at least it's valid TeX.

# and or not -- all handled by recent (circa Jan 2006) changes to src/mactex.lisp. Closing this report as fixed.
