A wordpress plugin for the handling of Named entities.

Version 0.1 This plugin is a translation of J. Distlers Numeric Entities plugin to php. It allows one to translate named enties such as & to their utf8 or numeric equivalents.

As an example of its use, see my arXiv plugin. Here I process the RSS with latex to mathML. Unfortunately an RSS feed is not mathML so one needs to translate the named entities to their utf8 equivalents.

Installation: Simply place the file:

in your wordpress plugins directory, rename it to Entities.php and activate it.
