@andreiformiga Do you mean output math in a scribble document, or do you mean have unicode math symbols in the program text?

Or something else?

I mean having math notation rendered inline in DrRacket, in the interaction panel for instance… as it renders images etc

Ah, okay.

No, I don’t think that functionality exists yet.

Although you ould add it if you like. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m thinking about how to do it, though it would be a lot of work

@andreiformiga I think you could it without it being ‘too’ much work (presuming you didn’t write the math renderer anyway), have you had a look at the snip% class?

@leif no, what does it do?


andreiformiga
2017-4-15 22:05:45

I tried looking for a MathML renderer, maybe call it through the FFI and get it to render to an image

another option would be to call a TeX engine, probably would be heavier

there are already libs that call tex and produce pngs, i think

tried a quick search now, I think slideshow-latex does it

@leif it looks like your log changes caused test failures: http://drdr.racket-lang.org/39753/pkgs/racket-test-core/tests/racket/test.rkt

Also, those test failures showed up in the Travis builds for your pull request
