Well, when I want to use equations in text, I take advantage of the fact
that ATK uses troff to print.  You can use eqn formatting commands, and
set them up as FormatNote regions, so they'll be passed through to the
processors used for printing.  An example would be the following:

.EQ
delim $$
.EN
This is a test.  The following should be thes integral from zero to
infinity of f(x): $int sub 0 sup inf f(x) ~ dx$.  It doesn't look nice
but it should print reasonably.

For those who can't examine it more closely, the first three lines (.EQ
through .EN) are in FormatNote, and the region starting and ending with
$ are also in FormatNote.  Of course, part of what makes this acceptable
to me is that I don't need WYSIWYG.  Note, however, that this previews
properly.
