Partial Compilation Mode #49

Open TyOverby opened 10 years ago

When part of a document fails, it can usually be sectioned off into a sub-block. This will leave the rest of the document untouched. For example, a misshapen equation can be detected and throw errors, but keep processing the rest of the document and produce TeX output without including the broken equations.

This could be helpful in a live-editing multi-user environment where one user in the middle of typing an equation shouldn't screw everything up for the rest of the people.

MathCompiler is now structured in such a way that it would be relatively easy to add this in, but only for math. Maybe partial compilation for math and documents should be split into separate issues?
