Wouldn't regular expressions be inadequate for deciphering nested expressions like the following?: sage: a = cos(cos(cos(x))) sage: a cos(cos(cos(x))) sage: latex(a) \cos \left( \cos \left( \cos \left( x \right) \right) \right) For nested expressions, my understanding is that one would need to first generate something line an Abstract Syntax Tree using a latex lexical analyzer and parser and then process the tree in order to generate equivalent openoffice code. My background is not in Computer Science, though, so I may be wrong about this.
