hello, There are some problems with the printed form of certain AxiomElements:
======================================= sage:a = axiom('2+7') sage:a/7 - 7 Type: Fraction Integer --------------------------------------- But, surprisingly, not: ======================================= sage: axiom('2+7')/7 9 - 7 Type: Fraction Integer --------------------------------------- Same comment for the following: ======================================= sage:a = axiom('2+7/x') sage:a/9 ------ 9x Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer sage: a = axiom('sqrt(x)') sage: a/7 \|x ---- 7 --------------------------------------- but note that these expressions are sometimes correctly printed if you hit <enter> (without input) and/or print 'a' several times (to reproduce this you'll need to play with <enter> and 'a'): ================================================================ sage: a = axiom('2+7/x') sage: a/9 ------ 9x Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer sage: a # print a 2x + 7 ------ 9x Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer sage: a/9 2x + 7 ------ 9x Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer ------------------------------------------------------------------ A workaround, on my configuration, is to change the Axiom line length of output. To change it you must issue ')set message output x' where x is the length. For me it seems to work with a length of 120 (which is the width of my terminal, but I don't think it's related). I don't know if and how it is possible to issue this command in SAGE so it can be added to ~/.axiom.input (Axiom reads it when it starts).
