[net.micro.mac] Technical WP on Mac?

Does anyone know of a word processor for the Mac designed
for mathematics, ie. one that handles subscripts, superscripts,
and special symbols nicely.

The Mac seems a natural for this application.

I don't know of any specific source for a PROGRAM for math/scientific
word processing.  However, Reed College has produced a very nice set
of Greek/Math FONTS for doing such word processing.  They are in
the public domain, as are Gaelic & Cyrillic fonts (don't know
who wrote these two).  Check out user's groups;  I've seen ads
for fonts @ $100 for Greek;  too much to pay for a product that is
duplicated in the public domain!
