Re: [Axiom-developer] LatexWiki image path names, Axiom library code and

[Bob McElrath]

One can create more than one LocalFS repository.  I would suggest a
totally separate 'axiom' LocalFS directory for this.

Having LatexWiki put all its images in one directory allows for caching.
I.e. if two unrelated pages both have $x$, it only gets rendered once.
Your proposals would have it rendered twice if the path was different.
