It's actually possible to turn messages like this off. If you're driving
maxima via a pexpect interface, that might be the proper thing to do. The
key is the "Common Lisp HyperSpec", the de facto official CL
documentation. Looking at {{{load}}} leads to the global variable
{{{*load-verbose*}}}:
http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/v_ld_prs.htm#STload-
verboseST
It's on by default in ECL, but can be turned off:
