Hi, I've been spending the last few days going between writing a lot of code with very math heavy Sphinx docstrings containing many backticks, and writing LaTeX documents (papers/notes/etc.) using $ signs for math mode. It is driving me totally crazy! I constantly accidentally put $'s in my Spinx docstrings and now I'm starting to put back ticks ` in my LaTeX documents.
Is anybody else annoyed by this? I am very tempted to change Sage so that $ signs can be used as a synonym for backquotes in docstrings. I would leave backticks, but make it so $'s just get converted to backticks, plus maybe some marker to leave $'s as $'s (e.g., whatever one would currently do to enter a backtick in Sphinx). [ ] Yes, give me $'s! [ ] No, this doesn't bug me; let's keep ReST/Sphinx in Sage "pure". -- William -- William Stein Associate Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
