I want to prettify "\cos" to be "cos". Have used ("\\cos" . ?cos)
but this gives
Invalid read syntax: ?

That's because ?cos is no character. ?c would be. The replacements of
`prettify-symbols-alist' must be characters (or something being valid
input for `compose-region's 3rd parameter).

For delimeters do I need to escape using "\"
("\\lbrace" . ?\{) ("\\rbrace" . ?\}) ("\\lbrack" . ?\[)
("\\rbrack" . ?\]) ("\\langle" . ?\⟨) ("\\rangle" . ?\⟩)
("\\lceil" . ?⌈) ("\\rceil" . ?⌉) ("\\lfloor" . ?⌊)
("\\rfloor" . ?⌋)
