@ellisonbg  comments predates mine. The issue that I pointed to is that the templates in the latex folder that are ```*.tplx``` not ```*.tpl``` files. The templates in the top folder are ```*.tpl``` and installed with this pull request and thus the reveal and markdown conversions  works. But the latex templates are still not installed and any latex conversion is broken. The reason why the original install procedure failed appart from the missing x in the latex templates with well be the missing ```__init__.py``` file
