Conflicts With MathJax

[estoquodaudes]

If I want to include some math formulas in LaTex, I can't avoid using "_".
And sometimes Parsedown will translate them into " ",which stops MathJax from interpreting

[aidantwoods]

Could you post an example?

you'd need to extend Parsedown to handle formulas included in $ in a special way, i.e. not interpret the content as markdown. That means adding $ as an inline element. Normal markdown does not treat $ as a special character so that should be done in an extension imo.

If you like, you can grab https://github.com/aidantwoods/parsedown/blob/mathjaxlatex/ParsedownExtensionMathJaxLaTeX.php

Which overloads a single ` to be inline math, and adds special handling for the language latex when used in fenced code. You might want to make some changes to those markers to suit you though.

(I give a bit more detail than that in #457)

I'm a little intrigued as to the cases where Parsedown is turning _ into spaces (as reported) though, smells like a bug if that is the case.

As mentioned this would be best handled by an extension, also see #554
