 Oops. I mean the documentation could be made more useful by having the
 name of the nearest command in the commercial packages. Not necessarily
 links to them, though that might be worth considering too. Some are non-
 obvious. For example factor() in Sage can factor an integer:

 {{{
 sage: factor(12)
 2^2 * 3
 }}}

 but in Mathematica one would use {{{FactorInteger}}}

 {{{
 In[1]:= FactorInteger[12]

 Out[1]= {{2, 2}, {3, 1}}
 }}}
