This new output looks *much* better than the old one, thanks! 

My only comment is that the spacing around the multiplication sign looks
a little too tight to me. The original spacing was probably too large,
but I think that a little more space than you currently have would be
better.

Yes, can you please share that to the list?

I believe that that is intentional. From the earlier email:

This new spacing looks much more even to me, especially around the
exponents.

Thanks,
