LaTeX

Modified code for blog so that the text parser acts more like a LaTeX parser, i.e. “double quotes” and ‘single quotes’ are automatically converted to their HTML equivalents — not to mention em dashes and en dashes are parsed and double newlines automatically create pagagraphs.

I worked on this from 9:00 p.m. – 12:30 a.m. (Sorry, I just had to demonstrate that en dash.)

I will eventually put up the code for this, but I’m kind of already behind schedule. (Man, it’s so nice not having to worry about

tags.)

Oh, and idea (but not code) stolen from SmartyPants. Hmm, maybe I should implement the nice ellipses code…
