Hi there, I made some experiment with Pillar&gitbook today. Really nice work Damien and al ! There is only one drawback for me at the moment: apparently LaTeX equations are not visible under markdown. I guess this might possible to generate the pictures with LaTex. For exemple, you can compare the book generated here : https://www.gitbook.io/book/sergestinckwich/pharoprogramsformodelinginfectio... with the pdf generated from Pillar : https://github.com/SergeStinckwich/PharoProgramsForModelingInfectiousDisease... The last one included the equations. Regards, -- Serge Stinckwich UCBN & UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC) Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://www.doesnotunderstand.org/
it does look great, I am interested in porting Updated PBE to gitbooks if its easy enough :) On Sat, Jul 26, 2014 at 10:02 PM, Serge Stinckwich < serge.stinckwich@gmail.com> wrote:

it should be automatic once it is in pillar format.

nothing exists yet, but I can help if you want to look at that. The idea would be to keep the latex formula for latex output and to use latex to generate a picture for other outputs -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm."

Apparently this is possible to generate png or jpg files from LaTeX with the standalone package: http://mirror.ibcp.fr/pub/CTAN/macros/latex/contrib/standalone/standalone.pd... Dans un fichier tex: \documentclass[convert]{standalone} \begin{document} %%% insert your LaTeX equations here $\frac{dS}{dt} = -\beta*S*I$ \end{document} puis : pdflatex -shell-escape test.tex Another option is to use a LaTeX image generator : http://www.sciweavers.org/free-online-latex-equation-editor that allows you to embed images inside the resulting html. -- Serge Stinckwich UCBN & UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC) Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://www.doesnotunderstand.org/
