Hi,
how to do this: here in Poland we have some conventions as for
typesetting math; for example, we don't use \leq, but \leqslant; we
don't write "tan" for tangent, but "tg"; we don't write "arcsin", but
"arc\,sin"; etc. Would it be possible to have such typographic

Hans,
I've read in this thread that you're going to work on columns some day.
