Looks really promising. I think i will give it a try. I am currently using a combination of Markdown and LaTeX (Markdown with embedded LaTeX expressions for math, compiled using pandoc [1]). Do you have any concerns regarding stability or output quality precompiling this combination with PreTeX? In other words: Does PreTeX only precompile statements surrounded by "$" or "$$"?

I use Pandoc myself, actually this was written as a companion to it, focusing on the math side on things. As stated in the github text (maybe I should phrase it better), pretex works in any math environment I know of. So inline and all the \begin\ends, starred and unstarred. If you come across anything that doesn't work, shoot. So it works perfectly for pandoc!
