Won't add/subtract fractions

To reproduce, type the expression in the screenshot into Y1 and choose Simplify. It will not simplify anything and spit out the same expression into Y2.

I expected it to subtract the fractions by finding a common denominator, which will simplify it to 1/(X(X+1)).

This functionality is not currently supported by PCAS. It is possible to implement and would be an extra checkbox in the simplification tab, because some users might not want to combine fractions. I will see what I can do over winter break.

Unfortunately I have not gotten around to it.

@nathanfarlow I believe this can still be a great addition to the program. Are you still working on this? Can't wait to try it out.
