/**
 * Given a shunk of a latex equation code, render it and return a
 * corresponding image file.

 * Based on code by:

 *  Copyright (C) 2003 Benjamin Zeiss <zeiss@math.uni-goettingen.de>
 *  http://www.mayer.dial.pipex.com/tex.htm
 * Kjell Magne Fauske
 *  http://www.fauskes.net/nb/htmleqII/
 *
 * Example usage:
 *
 * $latex = new Pluf_Text_Latex_Equation();
 * if (true === $latex->render('e = mc^2')) {
 *     $png_file = $latex->output_file;
 *     $png_full_path = $latex->output_path;

 *     $error = $latex->error_code;
 *     $msg = $latex->error_msg;
 * }
 *
 * Note that the class is not using exception to return the errors,
 * that way you can easily grab the error and depending on the error
 * code/message generate a special .png file to display.
