Will there be Paper and LaTeX integration?
Hi!
Shouldn't the opening of the Paper platform be the right opportunity to build a LaTeX collaboration system through Dropbox?
Best,

Hey Matteo
We’re excited to let you know that we’ve rolled out in-line LaTeX support in Paper. To start editing in LaTeX, simply type “$$" to enter LaTeX editing mode, and use the arrow keys to navigate out of the editing mode or press “enter” or “return” to escape it.
Try it out and let me know if you have some feedback!

Let's hope they start with separating $ Inline LaTeX Code $ from $$ Paragraph LaTeX Code $$.
It's something we have in any decent MarkDown Editor.Thank You.
The current system is very limited.
What we need is $...$ for In Line Math and $$...$$ for Display Mode Math.
Moreover, we would like to have suppport for all MathJaX features (Basically all amsmath features and enviornments).
Any chance to have that?
This is a must for students.
Thank You.

@Sanchez,
That would be great if you can forward this to the development team.
Students, Engineers, Programmers, Etc... will really appericiate this features.
They already made the hard work by incorporating MathJax, all needed is to match features of ther basic MarkDown editors.
For instace, have a look on ReText, StackEdit, HackMD, etc...
Even StackExchange editor in math oriented communities has this capability.Thank You.
