Doing complex equations with super-scripts and sub-scripts is beyond
any type of ascii text editor. However, there are packages such as TeX
or LaTeX (check the FreeBSD ports collection) that will let you compose
equations in a text processing language, run them through a filter (such
as TeX or LaTeX), and generate nice looking equations in post script
format.
Hope this helps,
