So I say to you, walk with the wind, brothers and sisters, and let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide.

The problem

Cocalc exports notebooks to LaTeX using a default provided by nbconvert when File > PDF via LaTeX is clicked in the menu.

I wanted to be able to customize the default LaTeX settings (found at /ext/jupyter/nbconvert/templates/latex), however this contains read-only files on the system. So, I created a local config, but they do not automatically override the system settings. After interpreting the docs, I found how to override the system default.

The recipe

First, copy the folder /ext/jupyter/nbconvert/templates/latex to /home/user/.local/share/jupyter/nbconvert/templates/latex.

	# A model of computation
	for(i in 1:2)
	{
	print("To calculate two times two, please enter: 2*2")
	scan(what="char")
	print("Sorry, that's incorrect.")
	}

	print("To calculate two times two, please enter: 2*2")
	scan(what="char")
