'''Short description''' ## Tell your story here. ## What is the problem you are trying to solve? ## Is this features useful to most users or just to specific users? I would like to easily type in math expressions, perhaps using a syntax like the one used in LaTeX. . See the latex parser on ParserMarket or MathMlSupport Has anybody looked at [[http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/jsMath/|JsMath]]? Seems like a nice (non MathML) alternative to [[http://www1.chapman.edu/~jipsen/mathml/asciimath.html|ASCIImath]] suggested on MathMlSupport. . From the Homepage: "''[[http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/jsMath/|JsMath]] does not use MathML, but this is not intended to indicate that MathML is not a good or useful thing, because it is, and I know that. But MathML is not designed to be written directly by human beings, and I wanted a format that I could easily write by hand and include in quick, non-archival web pages like homework assignments, while not having to require students to use a particular browser or download extra software to be able to view it.''" I wrote a [[http://wiki.themel.com/jsMathParser|very simple jsMath parser]], it works nice enough for me. . For a better visibility, this thing should live on ParserMarket page (and/or a subpage of it) and if it fulfills this feature request, the feature request should be deleted. -- ThomasWaldmann <> . I use the desktop version of moinmoin. For some reason after a second edit the original formula is corrupted by the interpreter (and also doesn't appear correctly on the screen): so "$$\Gamma^{\mu\nu}_{\alpha} = \partial g$$" becomes: "

$\displaystyle{\Gamma^{\mu\nu}_{\alpha} = \partial g}$

". Any idea how to correct this? --Zelhar<> . I have successfully used [[http://www.forkosh.com/mimetex.html|mimetex]]. Compile and copy into a cgi-bin (for this example on 'anyhost') and then any TeX equation can be inserted anywhere by using<
> `{{http://anyhost/cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi?x^2 + y^2 = 0}}` <
>Using the public mimetex service gives the following:<
> {{http://www.forkosh.dreamhost.com/mimetex.cgi?x^2 + y^2 = 0}} <
>The public mimetex is not supposed to be for production servers - but this page is averaging about 1 or 2 views a day which I think fits the definition. No Parsers, No Macros, No configuration, ...etc. Though you do have to use TeX. -- TimCera <> Hi, [[attachment:ReimarBauer/text_x_mathtran.py]] describes a way how it can be easy added to 1.7.1/1.8. There is still some work to do. It shows currently the concept idea from the EuroPython2008 sprint. -- ReimarBauer <> ---- CategoryFeaturePatched
