Hi Herbert,
That eliminates the italics, yes? The reason I didn't address that is
because most chemical formulae I use have numbers rather than letters.
A simple example is water (H2O). Most inorganic equations fall nicely into
this. More complicated examples tend to be schematic organics, at

\textsuperscript{ouga} does the job.
No ideas for subscripts.

You could try do define your own LaTeX commands or use some
special chemistry package. Have a look at CTAN to find something that
