  This function is used for handling the \code{text} arguments to the
  text-drawing functions.  These arguments can be character strings or
  expressions (which are interpreted as mathematical expressions and
  typeset according to TeX-like rules, see \code{\link{plotmath}} for
  more details).  Users will typically have no need for it.
