+\subsection{Using Colours in math formulas}
+
+While |\color| and to some extent |\textcolor| can be used in
+formulas, this is cumbersome, may lead to bad spacing, and in some
+situations is simply not possible. For this reason we also introduce
+|\mathcolor| which will help in this respect. The basic syntax is:

+See \texttt{mathcolor.pdf} for details on this command.
