+(chapter :title [Equation Formatting]
+   
+   (p [Skribilo comes with an equation formatting package.  This package
+may be loaded by adding the following form at the top of your document:]
+
+	(disp (prog (source :language scheme
+		       [(use-modules (skribilo package eq))])))
+	
+      [It allows the inclusion of (complex) equations in your documents,
+such as, for example, the following:]
+	
+	(disp (eq :renderer (if (engine-format? "html") 'lout #f)
+                  :ident "eq-disponibilite"
+		  `(= (apply A D)
+		      (sum :from (= i b) :to (* S b)
+			   (* (script :sup (* S b) :sub i C)
+			      (* (expt mu i)
+				 (expt (- 1 mu)
+				       (- (* S b) i))))))))

+describe equations, as well as the rendering options.])

+	     (prgm :file "src/eq1.skb"))
+	  (disp (include "src/eq1.skb")))
+
+  	[In this example, the ,(tt [eq:]) sub-markups are used pretty
+much like any other kind of markup.  However, the resulting syntax
+is very verbose and hard to read.])

+may have already recognized its ,(emph [prefix notation]).  Note that,
+unlike in the previous example, the equation itself if ,(emph [quoted]),
+that is, preceded by the ,(tt [']) sign.  Additionally, when referring
+to a symbol (such as the Greek letter ,(symbol "phi")), you no longer
+need to use the ,(tt [symbol]) markup (,(ref :text [see subsection]
+:subsection "Symbols")).]))
