[Tikzdevice-bugs] Special characters?

[Matthieu Stigler]

Hi

Can I ask a further related question?

How does one make expressions to be recognised? Like in:


library(tikzDevice)
tikz("~/temp/examT.tex", standAlone=TRUE)
plot(runif(100), main=expression(rho==1))
dev.off()

does not come in greek... I looked in manual, did not find, maybe still 
section 4.5.5?

Thanks!

Matthieu
