To stay with the Multimarkdown philosophy of converting to xhtml and then using style sheets to go to other formats it seems that a script in the same vein as TeXdown would be pretty simple.
- Detect that we are doing math either through $$ or `% or
whatever mechanism. 2. wrap the math in a <math> tag 3. Write xsl transformations. For html + jsMath: insert all the <script> tags at the beginning of the template and Just keep the <math> tag around the math for LaTeX: you just get rid of the <math> tag and insert the math with $ around it.
This is exactly what I do. Most of my writing with equations gets turned into reports, so it goes the LaTex->PDF route and XHTML is only a transitional step. I do have a (lately neglected) blog at www.leancrew.com/mechanics that uses jsMath. The template contains the <script>s that load and execute jsMath, the individual posts have the <math> tags after processing by my fork of MultiMarkdown.
