This plugin has problems with the sub- and superscript syntax in mathmode and displays a wrong syntax error when the argument is in braces {}. Without the braces it works just fine.

Example: $a_{b}$ or $a^{b}$
Error: Empty element parsed in 'latexFile' at offset 3. LaTeXTokenType.,, LaTeXTokenType.:, LaTeXTokenType.ARGUMENT, LaTeXTokenType.CRLF, LaTeXTokenType.IDENTIFIER, LaTeXTokenType.SPECIAL, LaTeXTokenType.\\ or LaTeXTokenType.\begin expected, got '{'.

I've encountered something very similar with the command:
\newcommand{\superscript}[1]{\ensuremath{^{\textrm{#1}}}}
Unfortunately, don't know how to copy exact error message.
