2007/7/1, Simetrical &lt;Simetrical+wikilist(a)gmail.com&gt;om>: There is MathML support in all important browsers: * Mozilla Firefox * Netscape * Opera * Safari * InternetExplorer using Plugins In the case of the IE browser, code might identify this and offer a download to the plugins automatically[5]. I'm often running into the problems of texvc - ie. for the article Gozintograph[6] I wanted to create a very big "\begin{ptable}", but the function is not capable of such large fences, because it can only choose from a set of fences rather then drawing them parametrically as the mathml browsers are doing. A possible solution might be to use others and more TeX libraries. But I think it would have more sense to do both: migrate to MathML for mathematical markup and use a bigger TeX distribution like MiKTeX. The advantage of using MiKTeX is, that it is very complete and also available for Windows, so also students using Windows can use it. It should be very simple to extend the TeX distribution with additional packages. Unforunately I'm a .NET developer which means that I can't really contribute. I'm also to much into other projects. This is why I'm making suggestions rather than doing it myself. There are some screenreaders: * MathPlayer[1] is currently extended for speech output with sync. highlighting * AudioMath[2] provides MathML to speech conversation * BraMaNet[3] converts MathML to French mathematical Braille * LAMBDA Project[4] converts MathML from and into localized mathematical Braille Reading TeX Source is often overly complex written and hard to learn if you can't see how the code results in a grahical meaning. Thus, alternate text as in <math alt="E is equal to m times c square">E=m\,\mathrm{c}^{2}</math> might be a better idea. Maybe we could also exploit ideas from multilangual wiki: {{ifeq: {{MATHML}} | true | <math>E=m\,\mathrm{c}^{2}</math> | E is equal to m times c square }} where MATHML is a user setable environmental variable. A typical use pattern might be: {{math | <math>E=m\,\mathrm{c}^{2}</math> | [[Energy|E]] = [[Mass|m]] · [[Speed of light|c]]² }} ys, MovGP0 [1] http://www.dessci.com/accessibility [2] http://handy.univ-lyon1.fr/projets/bramanet/ [3] http://handy.univ-lyon1.fr/MH/bramanet/bramanet.php [4] http://www.lambdaproject.org/ASP/index.aspx?IDMenuAPP=0 [5] http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathplayer/author/creatingsites.htm [6] http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gozintograph
