Equation typing machine for the forums

[StephenPrivitera]

I bet this has been suggested before. I was just wondering... On the forums, we write a lot of math equations. It would be a lot more fun and quick and convenient and pretty if we had some sort of equation typing machine for the forums (oooo - with fractions and square roots and integrals). I'm sure if this were easy to create, it would have been done. But what's holding us back?

I am looking into the LaTeX module for linux.

Very excellent. I'm looking forward to it.

Why not replace some of the symbols (pictures) with actual text, such as:

τ (τ) instead of [tau]
σ (σ) instead of [sig]

etc.
