Hi
My groff experience is very limited.
I've been using latex for years, so
probably I just need to get used to

I'd like to give a label to every
equation, and then use those labels
for cross-referencing, as in latex.
I've done someting like this with
mm EC + mmr

I think Werner Lemberg also mentioned a clean and nicely scalable
