In axiom the corresponding directory is 

axiom/mnt/linux/src/algebra/

where you find all the .spad files, i.e., the source code.

In the long run, these will be documented using LaTeX, the corresponding dvi
files are in

axiom/mnt/linux/doc/src/algebra

It would be very nice to hear of your experiences. Maybe you could even share
the sources?

yes. see MathAction.

Good luck,
