LaTeX to MathML support #134

Open lucianmarin opened 11 years ago

lucianmarin commented 11 years ago

It will be great to have LaTeX support with markdown2. LaTeX code that can be converted to MathML:

$$
    x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}
$$

Everything between $$ should be rendered as MathML code inside a math tag.

Marked app as an example.

I second this. It would be a fantastic feature to add as an 'extra', I think.

I am here from trying to fix an issue in pdoc

pdoc runs MathJax.typeset() (in the browser) after the page is generated in python using markdown2.markdown(). This results in an awkward conflict to do with backslash escaping \\

To fix the problem I am trying to understand this unexpected behaviour of markdown2: It seems to incorrectly handle escaping of backslashes if a docstring is an r-string?

edit: The problem is definitly with pdoc. I think markdown2 is working as intended.
