Scripts to embed LaTeX in Markdown documents

Hi! This is a pair of scripts to easily embed LaTeX figures in Markdown documents.

Before using them, please

  1. modify TEX_DIR to be the folder where you want to keep the LaTeX stuff (./attachments/diagrams will be fine if you're using Obsidian);
  2. modify PREAMBLE and POSTAMBLE the LaTeX code to sandwitch the code of your figures before compilation;
  3. carefully read the scripts, as you're running Bash given to you by a stranger.

Then, you can use them like this:

git locstat

git locstat

The alias computes per-user lines of code.

Parameters are passed on to git ls-files: the main intended use is tallying a certain section of a project.

E.g. to examine the backend of a Rails' project you can run

git locstat :**.rb :^lib
