but it would be most natural if OutputForm exported something like

I guess this has not yet been done, because the internals of
OutputForm are done in Lisp (or was it Boot?).

I might misunderstand, but I think the real reason is that FriCAS mostly
uses "2-dimensional" (ASCII art) output.

Oh, yes. "algebra" was a bad suggestion, since it is 2D. Sorry.

Nevertheless. I think it makes sense to be able to produce a 1D output (=String) from OutputForm. It's just another output format like latex.

Do I miss something?
