RE: latex formulas into lout

That particular task would take hour or so in vim rewriting as
%s/lim _/{lim} above/
%s/\\to/-->/
%s/\\infty/infinity/g
etc

one annoyance is \text{} eg first line 

{\displaystyle {\text{If }}\lim _{x\to c}f(x)=L_{1}{\text{ and }}\lim _{x\to c}g(x)=L_{2}{\text{ then:}}}

becomes

If @Math {{{lim} above {x --> c}} f(x)=L sub {1}} and @Math {{{lim} above {x --> c}} g(x)=L sub {2}} then:

Another will be {\frac {A} {B}} to "{A} over {B}"

Enjoy ;)

Someone may have written a script that will partly do this - I don't think it would be that hard - but I suspect you would have to finish it by hand. I don't have such a program (the equations I have converted were done by hand from Word Perfect, where the language is v. similar to eqn/troff), but someone else may have.
