Installing Latex

First get LaTex installed - see Latex.

Basic information about this can be found here: http://wikisophia.org/wiki/Wikitex

Downloads can be found here: http://wikitex.org/wikitex/

Then, to add it to MediWiki do the following:

  • Install the wikitex package (link above)
    • Follow the directions in the README
    • I used ImageMagick as the image handler (in the README)
  • Install any other additional tex addons

Adding Graphviz

You pretty much just install graphviz and that's it. (apt-get install graphviz)

Note the newer version of wikitex adds an anoying "[source]" link to all graphs. I commented this line out in the wikitex.sh script.
