See FAQ 19: How can I get equations written on one line
for a way to get linear output.

It is unlikely that axiom will ever have read-write equivalence
although that would be very nice. However it would require decorating
the output terms with type information so that the reader could
reconstruct it.

The commercial version of axiom had a MathML front-end. That code
was not released but was sold to another company. It is now a
browser-plugin.
