When I check the Tex Filter settings, I see that the Latex and dvips binaries are in the right place but not the Path of convert binary (/usr/bin/convert). Is this the only problem preventing Tex code from displaying as equations, and if so what can I do to remedy the situation? Really, I don't even know what "a binary" is.
Also, I should ask if Tex is the simplest way to convert code to equations (as opposed to jsMath or something).
Thanks in advance! Below are the Tex Filter Debugger messages:
