the missing square is a MathAction bug, it seems...

The result of the commands::

  )set output algebra on
  factor(-x^2-1)

is:<pre>
              2
  (1)     - (x  + 1)

  \$\$
  -{{x \sp 2}+1}
  \leqno(1)
  \$\$

        Type: Factored Polynomial Integer
</pre>

So, yes you are correct that MathAction is not presenting the 'algebra'
output correctly. The TeX output however is missing parenthesis. It
should be

\begin{equation}
-(x^2+1)
\end{equation}

Note the missing parenthesis in TeX? output:

axiom
)set output algebra on
factor(-x^2-1)
2 (1) - (x + 1)

\label{eq1}-{\left({x^2}+ 1 \right)}(1)
Type: Factored(Polynomial(Integer))

So, yes you are correct that MathAction? is not presenting the algebra output correctly. The TeX? output however is missing parenthesis. It should be


\label{eq2}
-(x^2+1)
(2)
