NAME

       wxmaxima — wxWidgets interface for maxima

SYNOPSIS

       wxmaxima

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the wxmaxima command.

       It was written for the Debian distribution because the original program
       does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in it’s Help
       menu.

       wxmaxima  is a rather self-explanatory front-end to the maxima computer
       algebra system. It provides  a  graphical  interface  and  2D  formated
       output  display for maxima. Its menu system facilitates the access to a
       huge part of the maxima native set of commands and also to a  browsable
       maxima  help.  The  dialogue  windows  make  easy  the  introduction of
       mathematical entities such as limits, matrices, etc.

       maxima is a free (GPL) common lisp implementation based of the original
       computer   algebra  system  Macsyma  developed  at  MIT.  It  has  full
       documentation  (HTML  and  info)  included  in  the  maxima-doc  Debian
       package.

       It  uses  the cross-platform GUI toolkit wxWidgets and runs natively on
       different operative systems.
