With my math plugin (see
http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#MATH), one may use visual
mode on a digit and press "_" to make it into a subscript and press
"^" to make it into a superscript. Use visual mode to select a
alphameric character and press "&" to make it into a corresponding
Greek character. Use visual mode on a "->" or "<-" and transform it
into a nice Utf-8 arrow.
