[Xerte] Hello & LaTex in Xerte

[Patrick Lockley]

Liverpool set up a shared PC to act as a server for everyone as a lightweight interim position - this allows user sharing and all those benefits to be accessed easily.

If this model appeals to people we could look at adding this advice into the installer?

Just to answer the latter - no we don't, at the moment we're using the
client on individual machines as word spreads, though I guess as it
becomes more popular then installing the toolkits would be sensible.

Hi Jackie,

It seems the external latex service we use has crashed.

We're looking into alternatives and hope to get something sorted soon.

Do Birkbeck have a toolkits install?

Thanks

Pat

Dear List

Just a quick email to introduce myself. I've just started with Xerte and
am really enjoying the results.

I'm really keen to include equations and although I've searched archives
and found some advice about incoroporating LaTex into Xerte I've not yet
had any success with this.

The example from the page

http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_595

does not display any equations for me (Firefox nor Explorer - I'm using
windows 7). Also tried with Safari on a borrowed snowleopard to no
avail. I'm using the latest version of Xerte (download - not toolkits)
and everything else seems to be running fine.



Is anyone able to advise?

Many thanks
Jackie
