[Building Sakai] LaTeX markup ?

[Jon Wheat]

Thanks, that seems to have done it / mostly.
 
I'm getting some symbols - and if I install the ttf files on my system - it works great.
Are the formulas supposed to render if the user doesn't have the fonts installed ?
 
are there images that should exist somewhere ?

Don't know if your past this yet or not .. 
I've been out for a while (new little one at home :-) 

The settings that this blurb refers to are in the web.xml file for
rwiki. Location should be:

rwiki-tool/tool/src/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml

Just look for jsMath when editing that file in vi or whatever. That should 
get you started. You'll have to rebuild rwiki again of course but it
looks like that went fine from your last post.

Hope that helps.
