I have for some time intended to make something similar to what
mathurl (http://mathurl.com/) does. But so far never had the time to
do it. The hard part would be handle the external dependency on LaTeX
in a reasonably tolerable and platform-independent way. Maybe with
JLaTeXMath through an IDL_Java bridge.

Ideally the LaTeX output should be vectorial, not bitmap. But drawing
the vectors might also be tricky, depending on how they are provided.
