UMath

Terminal-based prettifier for mathematical expressions using unicode maths symbols

Requirements

• POSIX compliant standard library
• Clang (or GCC compatible compiler with tweak to Makefile)
• GNU readline library
• A terminal font with good support for unicode maths characters

Installation

To build binary:

$ make

Usage

umath [input]

Example usages

$ echo "input" | ./umath

$ ./umath "input"

$ ./umath
> input

UMath can take input from stdin, arg1 or its own interactive prompt (using the readline library).

Regardless of input method, the prettified equation is printed to stdout.

E.g.:

$ ./umath
> G*mM/(r*r)
   mM  
G⋅⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
  (r⋅r)
