Very cool to write math when input has no math formatting.

E.g.

                                𝑛      𝑛

∀ ϵ > 0 ∃ δ > 0: 𝑑(𝑥, 𝑦) < δ ⇒ 𝑑(𝑓 (𝑥), 𝑓 (𝑦)) < ϵ ∀ 𝑛 ∈ ℕ

The one-line mode could be improved.

E.g. it outputs

𝑑(𝑓^𝑛(𝑥), 𝑓^𝑛(𝑦)) < ϵ

but could've instead used the superscript characters.

𝑑(𝑓ⁿ(𝑥), 𝑓ⁿ(𝑦)) < ϵ

I'm not using the “ⁿ” character here because it's the superscript version of “n”, not “𝑛”. The latter has no superscript version.

Indeed. Didn't noticed it was 𝑛.

No problem. I debated making it use the superscript anyway, since having f^\mathrm{n} is pretty rare, but decided against it for maximum correctness.
