It's possible.  But I tried to run the example, and I seem to be
unable to get past the formula I'm asked to enter after the "m s"
part: I get error messages.

I'm probably missing something.  Could you perhaps show the commands
and keys to type, starting from "emacs -Q", to reproduce the example
and its results?

Thanks.
