As far as I understand, you want to use newGreek() in place of new() in FiniteField. Personally, I would be in favour of such a change, however, I think FriCAS should be conservative in the sense that the current behaviour should not change and one would have to explicitly turn on (off) greek letters if symbols are auto-generated in finite fields. So somehow I tend to agree on your earlier suggestion with FiniteFieldSymbol(p, n, somesymbol), although the name is not perfect. Maybe one can rely on the fact that FriCAS allows to distinguish between a 2 argument and 3 argument domain constructor. Hmmmm... I've never tested that. To me the line )abbrev domain FF FiniteField seems troublesome then. Ralf -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
