IMO we should keep actual output, HyperDoc pages and the FriCAS book
as close to each other as possible. If 'Compiling function' messages
are deemed distractiong, then we could supress them in default output.
OTOH they give information than sometimes is useful.
Also, more general remark: whitespace is cheap and can significantly
improve readability. So, remove whitespace when it is trurely
excessive, but do not aim to reduce book length in this way.
