What Hacker News says
3 sourcesI am writing a book on introduction to theoretical computer science in markdown and use pandoc to transforming it into HTML, Latex (and from there to PDF) and MS Word. (The latter format is rather buggy at the moment, but I am including it because I've heard from visually impaired students that it is often the easiest format to read as you can control the font size.)
I've now put my scripts on https://github.com/boazbk/tcs/tree/master/scripts
in case anyone finds them useful.
(This is not a "plug and play" package that you can install and use, but people that are better programmers than me might be able to adapt it and improve on it.)
