I've pushed another update to
https://github.com/hemmecke/fricas/commits/new-ps-book-rhx
What actually still bothers me a bit is that breqn does not break some
output. I seem to have found the reason. Obviously the mleftright
package does not play nicely with breqn. I basically introduces \mleft
and \mright for the \PAREN macro
https://github.com/hemmecke/fricas/blob/master/src/doc/fricasmath.sty#L57
in order to over come an extra space between sin and ( in the usual
"\sin\left(x\right)". "\sin\mleft(x\mright)" avoids such a space and is
more or less equivalent to "\sin\!\left(x\right)".
Maybe I must rewrite fmtlatex.spad a little to overcome that problem and
then remove the need for the mleftright package.

It wouldn't solve that overlapping problem, but I am thinking about removal

They are distracting and irrelevant when reading the book, but on the other
hand they avoid surprises for people who actually type in the commands and
try out the commands from the book.
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.
OK, then we leave that in the book.
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.
My intention was not to remove the number of pages, but to show the
output of the pascal triangle nicely (which comes from fricas as
separate chunks and therefore in separate latex environments).
Additionally, I wanted to put the output of a command closer together.
There is no need to put a gap between the value of a command and its
type. The different types of the output are anyway separated by color.
I left a little space between input an output though.
