I'm having trouble using maxima's appendfile:
(C3) appendfile("buddy.txt");
(D3) APPENDFILE(buddy.txt)
(C4) x;
(D4) x
(C5) y;
(D5) y
(C6) closefile("buddy.txt");
Error: Not in dribble.
Fast links are on: do (si::use-fast-links nil) for debugging
Error signalled by CATCH.
Broken at MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL. Type :H for Help.
I tried rolling my own appendfile, but I wasn't able to make dribble append to a file, instead
dribble would overwrite the existing file. I read maxima's info on append file, but I don't
know the meaning of the four arguments.
Any hints?
Regards,
