Scribble Embedding Tools

This repository makes it easy to embed third-party content into Scribble documents through iframes.

For now, my primary use-case is to embed Google Forms (surveys, quizzes, etc.) and YouTube videos. Therefore, those are the entry-points defined in the library. However, the actual code is very generic; the only real specificity is using parameters (currently) suggested by those sites, which are anyway modifiable. If there's interest, we can generalize this interface.

In LaTeX, the library intentionally does not introduce any additional styling (like centering) so that the links can appear gracefully in the midst of prose without introducing ugly breaks. Nevertheless, because the content appears “inline” in HTML and not in LaTeX, slightly different prose may need to be written in the two cases. Scribble's cond-element (which should be used only sparingly) may be useful in this case.

Quick Start

Install this package:
In a Scribble document,
```
@(require scribble-embedding)
```
to load the library, and
```
@(google-form <URL>)
@(youtube <URL>)
```
to use it (where <URL> is the sharing URL generated from those sites).

Documentation

Once you've installed the package, you'll find documentation by searching for "scribble embedding" in your local installation (go to Help | Racket Documentation in DrRacket).

The installed directory also contains a sample sub-directory that provides a file with examples. Just run make in that directory.

Dependency

The LaTeX version depends on Scribble continuing to recognize links in the styles of elements.
