I have been massacred on this list for ever preferring \over to \frac...
and because of the many {} you then need you get these mismatch errors ... but, you can make
\unexpanded\def\fakefrac#1#2{{{#1}\over{#2}}}
The syntax {a \over b} is much more readable (to a mathematician) than \frac{a}{b} which looks fine to a programmer. This has nothing to say about how one or the other performs, it is a purely syntactical preference. Alan
