Thank you. You are right this does work for me too. My mistake.

You are probably right but I wonder if part of the reason for lack of
use is perhaps many people who use FriCAS do not know that asq even
exists.  It is not installed during

  # make install

So even to try it, you need to know that it is out there somewhere.

But I am not suggesting that asq is that interesting as it stands,
just that it might serve an example written C of how to access the
FriCAS database.  The output could be modified to be much more useful
than it is and serve as a basis for a simple FriCAS library browser to
replace that dynamic part of HyperDoc.
