The backtick notation isn't particularly useful because of the variable/context restrictions. So I removed mention of them from the PGessaymacros help messages.

If you use

loadMacros("contextTypeset.pl");
Context("Typeset");

before you process the text of the student answer, that should clear up the variable name problems with backticks. This context provides more support for typing math for visual purposes (without it having to be meaningful for computational purposes).

How does this work for EV3P ? Sometimes this stuff is rendered by pg, but
for the initial student preview its rendered by EV3P.

My recollection is that it uses the current context, so if you set the context before calling EV3P it will use that.
