| What to do with math? I prefer / to be just a / in math. 

Polish formats define `//' to be `/' in math too. 
For example, when using `/' notation, we write $4//2=2, 4//a=b$
Except above, there are two reasons for using double slashes:

1. they make possible to automatically re-encode between polish 
   text which uses `/' notation and, for example, Latin-2

2. what about $4//2=2\quad\hbox{oczywi/scie}$
