Hello.
TeX THE WORLD is a new plug-in that automatically replaces all TeX
formulas in any webpage seen in Firefox to an image representing that
formula. All you need to do is make sure your equations are places
between [; and ;]. For example, anyone running this plug-in will see
this nicely: [;e^{\pi i} + 1 = 0;].
It works on *any* website, including webmails (tested on gmail and
hotmail), chats (tested on gmail's internal chat and phpFreeChat),
forums (like google groups [when viewing sci.math!]), and
theoretically everything!

Comments are more than appreciated!
Avital.
After reading some enthousiastic remarks I had to try it myself.
And indeed, it works wonderful! Example:
Thanks, Avital! Keep up the good work!
It sounds nice. Congratulations avital.
Now before i install and try it, some questions and remarks, if You
don't mind.
I'm just an enduser, writing to sci.math, reading it with google and
writing so now and then a text for my webpage. I only need TeX, no
LaTex.
Here is a logo for You, avital.

You can find some earlier attempts to write TeX and a dictionary of
signs ( most used and popular signs first) and their corresponding TeX-
words or syntax. Anybody can print this out.
And You are allowed to make use of it, copy it, change it to Your
needs and display it on Your website.
Can You put up on Your website an explanation, how to underly a key of
my keyboard with Your signs, including a backlash and one empty space
in it, like :
[;\ ;]
So, when i hit this key, let's say it's the § -key, the computer will
write always in place of § this:
[;\ ;].
(for windows98, XP,...)
It's mentioned, that there's a problem with text of several lines
inside Your brackets. When i write:
[;\begin{array}text\\nextline\\moretext\\nextline\\nextline\\nextline\
\nextline\\nextline\\nextline\\nextline\\nextline\\nextline\
\.line13\end{array};]will it be displayed in TeX-results or will it
stay, as it is?
This is important for displaying matrices.
Is Your tool compatibel with <pre>....text...</pre> in html?
Is Your tool compatibel with firefox, Internet explorer, Google-groups
and Open Office (german version)? When i open a webpage with
"viewsource" in firefox or the editor of Internet explorer, will the
signs of TeX be displayed or will the brackets [;\ ; ] be displayed?
What happens if use Your brackets [; ;]with an empty space in it? Will
there be displayed nothing or an empty space? And when i double-click
on it?
What happens if i use Your brackets inside Your brackets, like this
[; [; \and ;] ;]?
With friendly greetings
Hero
PS If You have a "Still-to-do"-book, please note, that some blind
people have a software, which reads to them the texts. They shouldn't
use Your tool, but You can create a similar tool for them, which will
read in coorperation with their software to them [;\ prod;] as
"product of".
