Features

Firemath must be installed as an addon into the Firefox browser. After invocation it opens in a new tab. The following list summarizes the main features of the software.

  • Firemath supports a large number of mathematical symbols, operators and arrows.
  • The majority of the MathML 2 presentation markup elements are supported.
  • While editing equations these are displayed in two formats simultaneously, namely properly rendered and with editing elements added.
  • Equations can be saved in MathML format or as bitmap images. The same is true for copying equations to the clipboard.
  • When saving/copying MathML the user can choose between XHTML or HTML5.
  • Some editing can be done using the keyboard, while all elements can be accessed using the mouse.
  • Simple LaTeX expressions are interpreted.[2]
  • MathML equations on web pages can be opened in Firemath via the context menu (right click) of the equations.

gollark: No.
gollark: Besides, if I actually responded to this sort of threat, it would just incentivize people to keep threatening me.
gollark: Why?
