In Maple's Help system there is an icon to switch the Examples from 1D Maple notation input to and from 2D Math input (the default).

Why is the 2D Math form of the Help Examples in red? That doesn't match the any of Maple's interfaces' entry modes, does it? Shouldn't the input be in black, to match what appears to be 2D Math input in Worksheet mode?

Also, the 2D Math form of the Help Examples loses inlined explanatory comments. For example, on the modp1 help there is this, in 1D Maple notation

> 3*a; # cannot mix Maple operations with modp1 operations

Error, invalid terms in product

But switched to 2D Math entry mode that page shows only this

> 3 a
Error, invalid terms in product

Does this need fixing?
