Mathjax formatting buttons for you!

Question

After having to add dollar signs and format SI units countless times in the review section on Physics, I finally got fed up and wrote a script.{*}

It basically adds buttons/keyboard shortcuts to enclose the selected text in dollar symbols and \mathrm SI unit formatting.

For you chemistry guys, there's an extra button that encloses stuff in $\ce{...}$

It's pretty useful in /review, and also a good shortcut when writing your own posts.

Here's the userscript. Installation instructions are there. (also bugs/feature reqs/whatever)

^{*With some urging from chem.SE.people, otherwise it was going to be indefinitely in my todo list :P}

Answer 1

Note to users who installed it before 5/5/12 (3:51 PM UTC):

The script no longer needs to be updated (most updates include the addition of more sites/buttons and tweaks like tooltips). It auto-fetches the updates now.

I suggest you uninstall/reinstall it to run this one-time update

How to uninstall:

• Chrome: Settings>Tools>Extensions. Find the script and delete it
• Firefox: Open the GM settings and remove the script

Then re-install normally (click here)
