Ideally I would be able to have a running latexing of the whole course. So that means there would be some preamble information with all the macros, and then as I 'blogged' more of the notes into each wiki page, you would get a mini-chapter on each entry essentially. It seems like it would then even be easy to compile a single latex out of it at the end, just be taking the single preamble and collecting all the subsequent latex chapters which are tagged for inclusion into the master file.
Thanks for the reply!
