Not sure if serious, but if you Do this, and those who know latex will be able to win any argument through beautiful typography. Are you sure you want to give this power?
Hehe. I don't know, what do you think? Do we want to give people that power? At least we can have an easier time arguing about math.
There are some latex mods for phpbb, so I might not have to do everything manually if I were to get this implemented.

I really like texing things ... as in I'd probably tex up grocery lists if I did such a thing. It's a really nonessential item for this forum, though.

Thanks
Sure, Joaz, but could you provide clarification on the behavior that you'd like? The way the sl tag currently works is that you use the "=" to specify the SL page that you want to go to, and you use what's between the brackets to indicate the text.
For example, you could link to joseki like [sl=Joseki]this[/sl].
Ahhh...I see. It does work. Thanks. I was just using improperly. I assumed that, like most tage, we had to put stuff between the tags. I didn't realize that we had to modify the tag itself.

You can use just the 'sl' tag, but it will fail if you use any spaces, so I just always use 'sl='.
As for LaTeX support, I know the
xkcd forums have it, so it's definitely possible.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could just copy paste this feature from xkcd to L19

As a side note, you can also use the "sl" without the equals sign if you don't want to specify text for how to make the hyperlink appear. To do that, simply omit the "=".
For example:
Joseki
