@gerhobbelt/mathjax-dev NPM

fredw: This must be updated now that MathJax-dev is configurable so that people feel more welcome to use it. Quick hints:

cp default.cfg custom.cfg

then install all dependencies indicated in custom.cfg and modify the paths if necessary. Now run

make config

and you should be ready to use at least the packer and font generator (other parts do not use the global configuration yet).

Try "make help" for more information.

These are developer tools for those who may need to modify MathJax. Users and page authors DO NOT NEED these files, so unless you are writing extensions to MathJax, you need go no further.

This directory holds the various support scripts that were used to create data tables and fonts used byt MathJax. These include

fonts -- to create the data, images, and web-based fonts
MML-entities -- to create the entity translation tables
   for the MathML input jax
operator-dictionary -- to create the operator dictionary
   tables for the mml element jax
packer -- to create the minified versions of the js files
combiner -- to create the combined configuration files

For the packer directory, you will need to obtain a copy of the yuicompressor from

http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/compressor/

and unpack it in that directory in order to use the compressor.

These scripts may call on tools you don't have, or that are in different locations on your system. You may have to obtain those programs, or edit the paths in order for the scripts to work properly.

These are not intended for you to use, in general, and are only included for completeness. They are not for the casual user, and require experience with the command line, and other system administration skills.
