Oh right, I'm still using the version that filters math and excecutes the result as php. I added a try-catch too, I think. > But as for the original question, there is no support of latex in the > core of BoltWire, and no plugin.

I've done several Latex oriented projects, including some work linking it to boltwire, but not to the effect that latex derived images show up. But it's not difficult and I would also be happy to help if anyone wants to take a bite. > > Cheers, > Dan > > On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 6:53 PM, DrunkenMonk <[email protected]> wrote: > > The math plugin simply allows you to perform numerical calculations, > > like > > > * [(math "sin(pi * 5)")] > > > which would display: > > > * -1 > > > As far as I know, there is no way to (easily) insert latex into > > boltwire (yet).
