More about this Plugin¶

This LaTeX plugin for ScrewTurn Wiki allows you to type mathematical expressions on your Wiki. It simply provides ScrewTurn with an interface to of John Forkosh' excellent software mathTeX.

Configuration¶

The plugin relies on a MathTeX cgi program (see http://www.forkosh.com/mathtex.html), and the plugin must specify the URL to such a resource. The address is entered into the configuration string of the plugin:

• Go to Administration/Providers
• Click in the Formatter Providers radio button
• Click Select and enter into the settings text box:
  

  http://www.forkosh.com/mathtex.cgi?

  
  

Usage¶

Try entering:

<latex>[A,B]=AB-BA</latex> {br}
<latex>\sqrt{a^2+b^2}</latex> {br}
<latex>\large e^x=\lim_{n\to\infty} \left(1+\frac xn\right)^n</latex> {br}
...

and you should see something similar to:

  would not work.
