Unfortunately, normal output routines always produce 2D output.
Linear output can be obtained via 'unparse':

(1) -> ii := integrate(sin(x)*cos(x),x)

                2
          cos(x)
   (1)  - -------
             2
                                         Type: Union(Expression(Integer),...)
(2) -> unparse(ii::InputForm)

   (2)  "((-1)*cos(x)^2)/2"
                                                                 Type: String

(3) -> ((-1)*cos(x)^2)/2

                2
          cos(x)
   (3)  - -------
             2
                                                    Type: Expression(Integer)

Note: result of 'unparse' when given back to FriCAS is supposed
to produce orignal value.  To make sure that result can be
parsed correctly 'unparse' may add extra parenthesis (sometimes
unnecessary).
