FAQS/follow-up on solving a set of symbolic equations



Well, I think I wouldn't change C1, D1, E1 at all. If we would I'd vote
for something like In[] and Out[], thus accessing it as an array. I think,
more important than changing it quickly would be to know: What *would* be
a consistent interface. In fact, best *default* behaviour might be to turn
labels off. I find them annoying and I think this might save us a lot of
trouble. Unfortunately, there seems to be a bug here too:
