Bug: Additional "$" is uploaded when the abstract is automatically imported #32

Closed KarenRezkalla2 closed 1 year ago

KarenRezkalla2 commented 2 years ago

When on the client. In the submission view the abstract is immediately uploaded when the url of the paper is entered but if there are symbols in the abstract additional dollar sign symbols are imported in the description. Abstarct in the paper imported abstarct from metriq

Thank you, @KarenRezkalla2! This should probably go in https://github.com/unitaryfund/metriq-app/issues, since it relates to front end, but it's good to have the ticket!

Thanks @KarenRezkalla2. I would not claim it as a bug, given that the dollars appear due to the fact that the abstract is written in LaTeX language, and dollar sign is used for short mathematical expressions (e.g., rendering in italics for letters).

I wonder though if, prompted by this issue, we should consider, besides Markdown support, LaTeX rendering in the abstracts.

I think perhaps @KarenRezkalla2 erroneously placed the error for the metriq-app within the metriq-client project instead. From the discussion, I would still opt to close this even if placed under the metriq-app project based on the comment from @nathanshammah . Closing for now, but please do open back up if I am incorrect.
