SUMMARY
This is a feature request.

Mathematical equations written in latex should be supported, example being
$$V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$$

This is standard-ish in markdown applications.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Type a mathematical formulae in latex between $$ $$

OBSERVED RESULT
It does not render, instead shows the latex formulae between $$$$ (normal texr)

EXPECTED RESULT
It should render the latex formula

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

It has the capability if you install Pandoc and select it for use from the Preview options.  :)
