Hi,

I've recently needed to use mathematical equations in my TiddlyWiki and 
Googling turned up a MathJax plugin, which works well (after some 
modifications). I don't actually use it for the MathML support, but rather 
the AsciiMath support ( http://asciimath.org/ ). I find AsciiMath markup 
very easy to use, in much the same way wiki markup is easier than HTML.

I've since noted that there is a KaTeX plugin. It's nice in that it works 
offline and is self-contained, but I find the TeX syntax hard to use.

Ideally, there would be some way to use AsciiMath to produce something 
KaTeX can use. I believe the AsciiMath project already has such a script 
at: https://github.com/asciimath/asciimathml/tree/master/asciimath-based

However, it's been a long time since I've done any real web development, 
much less TiddlyWiki. I presume for it to work any AsciiMath-to-LaTeX 
plugin would need to parse the AsciiMath, produce the LaTeX code and then 
somehow pass that on to the KaTeX plugin. I have no idea if that would be 
easy or difficult.

I'm hoping that someone more experienced with TiddlyWiki might be able to 
indicate if this is likely to be difficult to do or not. If it's going to 
be difficult then I'll just stick with MathJax and deal with the online 
requirement. If it's easy I might brush off my JavaScript and have a go.

Thanks in advance for any help or guidance....

Andrew
