10.10.1: Embedding synonyms in quoted text strings

Outside math strings, you can embed your synonyms at will. For example, you can include the name of a data file in the title of your plot as follows 


query \filename "File to read from?" ("data.file")
open \filename
read columns x y
draw curve
draw title "data from \filename"

Within math strings (ie, between matched dollar-signs), these synonyms are disabled, and only the mathematical symbols and Greek letters work.
