Okay, I've played around a bit with my wiki and unicode.  It is indeed
the best option.  Resized text looks nice, and for my purposes this
works quite well.  Inserting the unicode text is a bit of a pain,
since right now I am copying and pasting the text... but I recently
found that there are entity definitions, like ∉ which make this
much easier to edit.

The only thing to do now, is to check how indentation is going to
work, along with line numbering.  I'll play with it a bit more, and I
will see about sharing an example of a typeset algorithm here.
