How can I tranform a prime decomposition from the standard Mathematica format 
{{2,3},{5,1}} to the more common format 2^3 5?

I succeeded (in a cumbersome manner) to get a satisfactory display in 
Mathematica but if I try to transfer it to another application (e.g. this 
newsgrup) I need to press Ctrl+Shift+I before copying. Then the display 
tranforms to "2^3 5". How can I get rid of the "s?

Any hint is greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Wolfgang
