latexmkJust run this from the command prompt:
sudo apt-get install texmaker biber
Launch TexMaker and configure it as follows:
This should work fine, without problems!
Special characters will fail if you use the obsolete bibtex backend, as it is pretty much ASCII-only (any UTF-8 in the *.bib makes it explode).
Biber hasn’t been packaged for Precise, so you’ll need to compile from source, retrieve through [tug.org], or find a backport (sourceforge) if you’re using 12.04.
On 12.04, apt-cache show biblatex yields: Config-Version: 1.7-1 Recommends: biber (>= 0.9.6)
Ubuntu 12.04 uses biblatex version 1.7-1; you can verify this by running:
apt-cache show biblatex
According to the biber documentation, the last biber release to support biblatex 1.7 is biber 0.9.9:
…so this should do it: http://sourceforge.net/projects/biblatex-biber/files/biblatex-biber/0.9.9/binaries/Linux/

this converts latex formula-by-formula into images:
Doesn't tex4ht and t4ht run in batch mode only? Perhaps you mean the
preceding latex runs. For example htlatex wrapper runs latex 3x and
then tex4ht followed by t4ht. You can pass additional options to latex
run as 5th parameter to htlatex, e.g.:
htlatex filename "" "" "" "-interaction=batchmode"

latexmkMany people are recommending the beamer package. Look into this!
write a Markdown parser that pulls out embedded LaTeX, converts to png with latex2img, renders the Markdown to HTML, and reinserts the images into the html!
