How to avoid ^- in maxima output? (Richard Fateman)



Thanks for the hint. Currently, I'd prefer to see if our problem can be
solved by adjusting 1d output formatting, there were encouraging posts.

We do not perform any real parsing at the moment, but that might change in
future, particularly in order to get nested lists and matrices right.

This is how a typical transaction log looks like:

" 
Request: ((%e^(-(x*y)))/b);
Answer: 
(%o26) %e^-(x*y)/b     <--- better: %e^(-(x*y))/b     
(%i27) 
Received bytes:27
SMathGet: e^-(x*y)/b
SMathGetBytes: 10 "

Nothing is done except translating e <-> %e in the given case.
