I use primarily eqn (because I like refer, etc.) but may start using TeX. In any case, I'm thinking of typesetting my dissertation and the a few papers on Unix. This presents a few special problems: for example, I work in modular forms, so it would be really NICE to be able to get a script capital H and a script capital O. I have access to an Apple Laserwriter Plus and use troff. Secondly, (lower case) gothic would be very nice as there are several Lie algebras involved. I've found constructs like $fat italics { s l } sub 2$ to be reasonably good alternatives, but not really ideal. Can anyone help me out? Oh yes, and respond by e-mail if you can.
