I am curious why there is interest in this right now.

Because I was running some experiments which work on WMA, and not here.

Ok. But please let's defer Boxing and Formatting work until after release. I am having problems with the amount of work needed to go over for the current release. Thanks.

If you are looking for something to do that will assist with the next release remember when you wrote #1290 (comment) :
Mathics-Django uses Mathjax to render equations, so it is just a matter to call the render when the documentation is loaded. I will look how to do this later.

It seems that this symbol remains undocumented since WMA v3...

Changing the link to that URL is fine. And adding this Builtin which still exists in WMA 13 is okay too. But all of this is a distraction from the next release. I'd appreciate it PRs could be more focused towards the next release.

LGTM - but again, please don't think about Formatting and Boxing until after the 8.0 release. Thanks. |
