This is OK for (La)Tex users; RTF would be very nice for other users, but
for general readability, without attempting the ASCII formatting above,
how about setting a "standard" intermediate format something like this:
C_{E_p}^{J_q}
= {d ln(J_q)}/{d ln(E_p)}
= {d J_q/d E_p}*{E_p/J_q}
= {d J_q/J_q}/{d E_p/E_p}
= lim[% -> 0] {% change in J_q/% change in E_p}
This is close to (La)Tex (only requiring some cuts and a few replacements
for translation), *is easily readable as is*, and should also be easily
translatable to other word processors.
