Use LaTeX equations in Adium (IM client)

Howdy,

It should work with any Cocoa application that accepts services; e.g., it also works with iChat.

Good Luck,

Use LaTeX equations in Adium (IM client)
Authored by: timkingman on May 18, '04 02:39:03PM

The "hint" here is that Adium displays (La)TeX without any user intervention. The screenshot and hint are a little less than clear, but Adium will call Equation Service to render any text enclosed in $$...$$, whether you send or receive it. It will not render a PDF and send it to your buddy.

The "this works in iChat too" trick is to use Equation Service as it was intended. Select some text, send it to ES (cmd <), and then paste the rendered PDF it into the chat.
