[Textbook-l] Wiki to LaTeX (and PDF) converter

[Andrew Whitworth]

That's a pretty good-looking tool, and the output looks fantastic.
Great job Derbeth!

I'll take some time to play with it later on, see what I can do with it.

> I have created an improved version of Hagindaz's Wiki2LaTeX (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/User:Hagindaz/Wiki2LaTeX) tool, which helps creating PDF versions of books. It can download the whole book with images and automatically generate LaTeX source code, which can be directly translated into a PDF file. Still, some knowledge of LaTeX is required, but the tool can greatly reduce time of preparing PDF version of a textbook.

>  Currently it supports output in two languages (Polish and English), but adding support for new ones is quite easy.
