Convert Gemini text to LaTeX

gemtext2latex

This is a trivial tool for converting text in Gemini format to LaTeX. It assumes the presence of a minimal LaTeX class called mk-plain.

The tool simply reads Gemini text on stdin and emits a reasonable LaTeX document, which in turn can produce a reasonable PDF via pdflatex.

Usage once the interface has re-stabilised

$ gemtext2latex < example.gemini > example.tex
$ pdflatex example.tex

Installers

It is intended that one should be able to install this via Python's normal packaging tools, e.g.,

$ pipx install gemtext2latex

Alternatively, binary installers are going to be generated on Github. These probably install all of Python, so are a bit of overkill.

To do

• provide docs
• tidy up the code
