No, groff (groff-headless) will stay as being surely a helpful tool.

I need something without GUI and wysiwyg as I do not get along with these.
I can think of groff with the eqn preprocessor; but I fear that groff will go away as mandoc is appropriate for internal documentation of an unix sstem.

The question was and is onwards for MathML and abiword is using concrete libraries to visualize this format. Other formats are in the end other formats and not in the interest of this thread. Besides that is abiword a good working word-processor and can be used alike without big memory-consumption.

You can give abiword a try as it uses also gtkmathview.

abiword might work, only thing I have had problems with using it on, is odts from other office programs.

I managed to do it using MathML and (the recently removed and discontinued) PhantomJS. Is there a better way (and one supported by Hyperbola)? Iceape displayed the formulas fine but print to PDF produced a PDF which didn't display the formulas correctly.
