Hi,
for printing you may simply replace
{Cos[x]->cx,Sin[x]->sx}
and continue to work with the original expression

| How can I introduce the following definitions:
|
| cx for Cos[x]
| sx for Sin[x]
|
| where, the argument x, will always be a single
symbol, and then still be
| able to use the trigonometric identities
associated with Sin, Cos; e.g.,
|
| cx^2 + sx^2 = 1
|
| Note, this is not c x (3 symbol expression);
but, cx (2 symbol
| expression).
| Why? Because I have some rather large matrices
with many elements that
| contain expressions in Cos and Sin terms that
make printing and
| displaying messy and using the MatrixForm can
give truncation in the
| printed output.
