OK, thanks. Any pointers to documentation of "modes" in the Sage
worksheet would be fine too.

Sure. A worksheet cell with the contents
%fricas
)set output algebra off
)set output tex on
sqrt(2)
currently displays following output
$
sqrt {2}
leqno(10)
$
"algebra" is what FriCAS calls it's ascii output mode. "tex" is
actually the LaTeX mode (at least it is mostly LaTeX mod a few custom
commands). The actual output generated by Fricas is
$$
\sqrt {2}
\leqno(10)
$$
I do not know why the first character of each line is not shown in the
worksheet. Perhaps the current %fricas mode is trimming this first
character?
)set output tex off
)set output mathml on
sqrt(2)
produces the following MathML code
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"; mathsize="big" display="block">
<msqrt><mrow><mn>2</mn></mrow></msqrt>
</math>
Getting MathJax to process FriCAS's LaTeX dialect might require some
extra work on the part of a new %fricas-latex mode, so I guess what I
would like most is a mode such as
%fricas-mml
that allows me to inject FriCAS-generated MathML into the worksheet output.
