ec9a178 enforced braces around the `a` in `a_b`. This prevents the LaTeX error of double subscripts in expressions like `a_b_c`, but unfortunately it also broke the commonly used pattern `a_b^c` (which is supposed to stack `c` over `b`). Also, it outright breaks integrals with limits. To bring back this functionality without also enabling the LaTeX errors again, I introduced a _new_ operator `!^`, for stacked sub- and superscript. Also, I patched `sumFromTo` etc. to apply their limits as `raw` sub- and superscripts.

This is useful for embedding actual text (sentences!) into math environments.

Thanks! I'm still unsure about adding brackets automatically without the user knowing with subscripts and superscripts. However, I definitely like the idea of having a sub- and superscript combined combinator. |
