[Blindmath] LaTeX to MathML

Hello Niels et al.,

If you are using markdown then the resulting HTML documents you create are expressing the mathematics in MathML, mathjax, or if you know how you can get graphics with alt tags showing the original LaTeX you entered (Wikipedia style).

This is just one reason why I love using markdown.

Hi,

in Germany, we are working with Latex. We don't use mathml. either  we use latex complete or we use Mark Down and the mathematical formulars are writen in latex.

I Study mathematics and Physic at Kiel University.
