Hi Lawrence,

emacs (in a window, not in the terminal) allows display of images. 
C-c C-x C-v will display your LaTeX equations as graphics in the 
buffer. No need for other software.

You could also look at UTF-8 mode (C-c C-x \) to display \alpha and 
x_y as their respective greek and subscript sympbols, for example.

And finally you could look into various pretty-symbol modes so your 
text and even python code looks more analog. With pretty symbols 
np.sum(sqrt(x)) looks like the greek sum and the sqrt symbols. A 
cheap ASCII view would be: Ev(x)

   -k.
