* Package name : texvc Version : 3.0.0+git20160613 Upstream Author : MediaWiki developers <wikitec...@lists.wikimedia.org> * URL : https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Texvc * License : GPL-2 Programming Lang: OCaml Description : validates and converts LaTeX expressions into HTML, MathML or PNG texvc takes LaTeX-compatible equations and produces formatted output in HTML, MathML, and (via LaTeX/dvipng) rasterized PNG images. Input data is parsed and scrutinized for safety, and the output includes an estimate of whether the code is simple enough that HTML rendering will look acceptable. texvc was written for math support in MediaWiki, but can be used standalone. This package was formerly in Debian as "mediawiki-math-texvc" but as it does not depend upon MediaWiki, it is being renamed to "texvc". The source package is still called "mediawiki-math" because texvc's source is bundled inside the Math MediaWiki extension. A "mediawiki-extensions-math" package may be introduced in the future. This package will be maintained by the MediaWiki packaging team, but in reality that is just me right now.
