Description
Hi @uranusjr
First of all a big THANK YOU (& kudos!) for coming up with MacDown--discovered it just now while looking for a nice Markdown editor since Mou stopped working on Sierra!
Love the fact that you support code-snippets with the help of PrismJS & also TeX expressions using MathJAX.
However, I badly wanted to see Math expressions formatted in the classic **TeX** font. But am unable to do so. Tried tweaking/editing the `init.js` file in `Resources/MathJAX` folder in the app. But then, the rendering stops. It begins to work ONLY if/after I un-check the support for inline TeX.
But seems like support for TeX is lost permanently, even if I restore the `init.js` to its initial state.
Any help/pointers would be great!
{Like what configuration of MathJAX is being used? HTML-CSS? Where/How do I tweak the properties?}
**Note:** I am using version : `0.6.4 (786)`
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by inspecting Resources/MathJAX/init.js and the MathJAX configuration used by MacDown 0.6.4, especially the inline TeX setting and font configuration. The requested result is to expose or configure the classic TeX font while keeping inline TeX rendering working.
