Enable Superscripts and subscripts as defined in Pandoc Markdown extension

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. In text editor, use ~word~ ( ^word^ ) to mark chars as sub or superscript.
2. Check the HTML preview

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
If the Pandoc Extensions: superscript and subscript (see [1]) were supported, 
it would be easy to markup sup and superscript which is required for most 
scientific writing.
By using the HTML tags <sup> and <sub>, this would be displayed correctly in 
the html preview.


Please provide any additional information below.

My patch must be reviewed carefully because i am a newbie in both js and reg ex.
