Well, i'm not saying that the next solution is the best or most beautiful,
but it works: 

\definetyping[XXX]
\setuptyping[option=commands,escape=@]

\def\XXXne         {\hsmash{/}=\gobbleoneargument}
\def\XXXsup#1endsup{\high{\ttx\gobbleoneargument#1}}
\def\XXXsub#1endsub{\low{\ttx\gobbleoneargument#1}}

\startXXX
If int(N/2)@XXXne N/2  %I don't have a not equals (\ne) symbol on my keyboard
S+Y1(X)+4*Y1@XXXsub (X+H)endsub+Y1@XXXsup (X+2*H)endsup->S   %These ones are
\stopXXX

Watch the space after the @command and also watch the \gobble to get rid of
that space. 

Now, is this ugly or not?
