Is there a LaTeX macro that just compiles whatever I type into it? Something like \text or \textnormal. I want to display a LaTeX code inline without any formatting, but don't want to escape everything. Especially I want to display the text in caption as well.

This is the LaTeX code I want to have as regular text.

x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

    Welcome to TeX.SX! You are probably looking for \verb: \verb!x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}! – egreg Jul 25 '14 at 09:38
  • @egreg Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. So hard to google things sometimes, when you don't know how to word it. – Ivica Unvovski Jul 25 '14 at 09:43
  • The LateX keyword is "verbatim", and their are various macros and environments that provide this kind of text with different options, depending on your need. – Steven B. Segletes Jul 25 '14 at 09:51
