Inline equations using `\(...\)` #1849

Open MangaD opened 4 weeks ago

\( ... \) is LaTeX syntax. $ ... $ is TeX syntax.

plainTeX only allows $. In LaTeX you can use both, but \( ... \) will give less obscure error messages when there is a mistake inside it.

Both are shortcuts to start inline math environments.

It looks like stackedit does not support the \( ... \) syntax for equations. E.g.: \(x^2 + y^2 = 1\)
