I want to include script capitals in a eqn/troff document to be printed on
an Apple Laserwriter 2. To do so, I have defined \*F to mean
	\f(ZC\fP
which works fine in raw text, but when typing
	... $( OMEGA , '\*F', bold P )$
	some text to go after the symbols
the text supposed to follow the symbols comes out in script until the
next paragraph break. I am obviously doing something silly, and would
appreciate a clean way of avoiding the problem (I could just fix it by
explicitly changing fonts whenever I get out of equations using the
script F, but there must be a right way of doing this).
