No.  You could use `grep -v` to remove all the input/output cell

You can hide the input using the toggle to the left.  Or you can do
%md(hide=True).

That is not what the button does for me.

When I click the help menu, I get a dropdown menu with numerous

https://github.com/sagemathinc/smc/wiki/sagews

 Exactly what web browser and OS are you using?
