KSS plugin for client-side display of LaTeX mathematical formula by the jsMath library
kss.plugin.jsmath enables the use of the `jsMath library <http://www.math.union.edu/locate/jsMath>`_ for KSS. The plugin was sponsored by the 40th International Chemistry Olympiad (ChO), 2008 Budapest. Egg: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/kss.plugin.jsmath Project page: http://launchpad.net/kss.plugin.jsmath Repository: hosted in bazaar, on launchpad. It can be checked out with the following command: bzr branch lp:kss.plugin.jsmath For commit access, please sign up as member of the team "kissbooth" on launchpad.net. To use the development trunk directly from buildout, you can use the recipe http://pypi.python.org/pypi/gf.recipe.bzr/ Usage ----- jsMath has its own markers for marking the beginning and end of the formulas in your text content. In addition, this component provides a KSS action, that needs to be executed on the nodes, within which you want the conversion to be enabled. This action will activate the conversion on the selected areas only. For example the following rule activates conversion inside all nodes that are marked with the "mathcontent" CSS class:: .mathcontent:load { action-client: jsmath-activate; } Markup ------ jsMath offers more variants for marking your content, these are controllable by parameters on the action. According to defaults, putting the formula between the markers ``\(`` and ``\)`` works out of the box:: \( \textstyle \sqrt{x+2}\quad \underline 4\quad \overline{x+y}\quad x^ {\underline n}\quad x^{\overline{m+n}} \quad \sqrt{x^2+\sqrt{\alpha}} \) The markers only become active in the areas that you select with KSS. Dynamic loading --------------- jsMath has a mechanism for loading its large javascript dynamically, on demand. The package uses this mechanism combined with custom code that helps dynamic loading integrate with KSS. More to be read in the README. Caveats ------- Since the conversion happens on client side, you will not be able to use the same mechanism to convert your pages to PDF, on the server side. Special thanks -------------- Special thanks to Dr. Gábor Magyarfalvi, at the Institute of Chemistry, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, for his support. -- Balazs Ree _______________________________________________ Kss-devel mailing list Kss-devel@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/kss-devel
