I'm not a braille expert, but I was hoping that it would be possible to tell liblouisxml (via the command line, preferably) that the input file contained Nemeth code so that liblouisxml could tell liblouis to translate it as such. Is that not possible?

Chris, I see you are already on the list. Processing books that use math butnot MathML poses difficulties, since the equations are not well- defined. It is difficult to know where the mathematical material begins and ends.Please send me such a file so I can examine it.

Do any of you liblouis/liblouisxml users attempt to convert this material to Nemeth code or do you just leave it in literary code? If you do attempt to convert to Nemeth, do you try to do any math detection yourself so that you can tell liblouis to use Nemeth to translate the file?
