Hi,

I'm currently developing a simple forum application in Sinatra to
discuss scientific papers. Being able to use equations in a post is
important so I've been using Maruku <http://maruku.rubyforge.org/>
with with the blahtex <http://gva.noekeon.org/blahtexml/> extension to
convert posts into HTML with equations as PNGs.

This all works fine on my local machine but Heroku does not have the
blahtex binary available so I cannot render equations (in LaTeX) as
PNGs.

I have already created a workaround that calls blahtex and uses HTTP
caching instead of writing the PNGs to file so provided blahtex can be
run I should be able to include equations as PNGs in my application.

Is it possible to have the binary for blahtex made available on
Heroku?

Thanks,

Mark.
