[Moin-devel] MathML support?

[Ping Yeh]

Hello,

     I have been using MoinMoin as the web for my freshman
general physics course.  The latex parser is very useful
in writing exercises and solutions.  Thanks for everyone
that makes this working so nicely!  (In case you are curious,
see http://ping.phys.ntu.edu.tw/course/GPB2-2004/Exercise5.)

     Now I'd like to go one step further for next semester.
I wish to use the itex2MML tool to convert TeX-like math
markups into MathML, similar to the blog page
http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/~distler/blog/archives/000541.html

     For this to really work nicely, it has to work both
in blocks (like {{{#!math some math here}}} ) as well as
inline (like $\gamma \ge 1$ for any $\beta$.).  It seems
this has to go into wiki.py by introducing inline math
markups like $$... $$.  This may break the line-parsing
scheme in wiki.py.

     Am I thinking something totally crazy, or this is
a good thing to do?  I'm starting to write a math.py
parser (block mode only).  Your advices are appreciated.

Regards,
Ping
