LaTeX
is the popular format for outputting well-formed mathematical formulas
and special text on the web. This plugin provides an interface between
the Linux/Unix implementation of TeX and a published Movable Type page.
Install: Download, untar and place the LaTeX folder
inside your Movable Type plugins folder. Next, edit any template where
you'd like to see your LaTeX formulas published and add the attribute
'latex="1"' such as for an entry body which would look like this:
<mt:EntryBody latex="1">. The format for including LaTeX code in
your posts looks like this:
$latex YOUR_LATEX_FORMULA$ and when you republish a post with latex
code it will be replaced inline with xhtml-compliant image tags
containing your formula.
Add LaTeX code into your posts inline...
...and it's automatically converted to a well-formatted image!
Requirements:
Movable Type 4.0+
LaTeX, ImageMagick installed
Some flavor of Linux/Unix (tested on Mac OSX, Debian)
This plugin ships with and uses the Perl port of LaTeXRender from Alex at Chapter Zero with some modifications for configuration and display.
