Works for me. In Sage 8.7.beta1 with Python 3.6.6, I get sage: gap(0) 0 sage: gap('0') 0 > Is the plan to make > "gap" and alias of (or a wrapper for) "libgap" in future releases? I think this would be a good idea in the long run, however would require a deprecation period. After all, libgap is not a drop-in replacement of gap, and I talk from experience (authoring the p_group_cohomology spkg) when I say that the transition from gap to libgap isn't trivial (but is a good idea).
