gridmicrotex: Native 'LaTeX' Math Rendering for Grid Graphics
Renders 'LaTeX' math equations as native R grid graphics objects (grobs) using the 'MicroTeX' 'C++' library as the layout engine. Produces resolution-independent vector output that works on any R graphics device, with no external 'LaTeX' installation required.
