David,
Axiom has its own internal "browser-like" front end called
hyperdoc. I am in the process of moving the information from
hyperdoc to traditional web pages.
The browser pages are all built automatically and live in
$AXIOM/doc/hypertex and the root page is:
$AXIOM/doc/hypertex/rootpage.xhtml
Communication with a running Axiom is started by typing
)browse
at the Axiom command line. Axiom will now listen on
localhost:8085 and serve pages to the same port.
This is still under development. It will eventually allow
Sage notebook-style interactions (See "Any Command").
Unfortunately there is still much work to be done but
the basics exist.
