I would like to create equations with varibles of more than one letter, such as "cell". Eq seems to only allow single letter variables, resulting in C output with "cell" rendered as "c*e*l*l", or the number "10" as "1*0" (very annoying). Is there a way to define variables as special symbols while eq is running?
