[sage-support] generate latex from symbolic expression without \;

As it stands, latex(2*x) will return: 2 \, x and thus leaves a space between the 2 and the x when compiled. This does not look very good, IMO. Is there an option some where that I can set so that this behavior is avoided, so that the above will return 2 x instead? ~Brian -- You received

+1. I don't like this behaviour and I've never understood why it's the default. (Why on earth does Sage insist on overriding LaTeX's very carefully tuned spacing settings? Do we think we know more about typography than TeX's designers?) David On 9 April 2013 09:55, shersonb caretake...@gmail.com
