[R] Trouble with Slidify and Latex

[Tyler Rinker]

Is there a reason not to contact the package author directly and ask him?  slidify isn't on CRAN so likely you got it from GitHub which is where you discuss package problems, particularly, a beta package's problems.  Here is the link to the issues page for slidify: <a href="https://github.com/ramnathv/slidify/issues?state=open" target="_blank" class="newlyinsertedlink">https://github.com/ramnathv/slidify/issues?state=open</a>

> For some reason, I can't get it to render any Latex in the presentation. Have reviews all the docs and think I'm doing things correctly. Is there something possibly broken with my installation, or am I misunderstanding the markdown syntax?

> Test $A = 1+2$ and some text after

> What I see in the Presentation:

>
> Test \(A = 1+2\) and some text after

> Note: This is literally a "slash" followed by a "parenthesis" in the final HTML slide.

> Any ideas on what's wrong here?

> Thanks.
