Hi List,
I think this a bug with mactex.lisp but don't see how to fix it. Can
anyone help me out with a pointer or workaround?
Seems to be in tex-mexpt but I'm not good enough at lisp to be able to
figure this out quickly.
Here's what happens:
-----begin session -------------

(C2) z:diff(y,x);
dy
(D2) --
dx
(C3) tex(z^2);
$$%DERIVATIVE^{2}(y,x,1)$$
(D3) FALSE
------- end session --------------
It seems to be digesting DERIVATIVE as it would sin, cos, atan, etc.
I was hoping for something more along the lines of
$$({{d}\over{d\>x}}\>y)^2$$
thanks for any advice!
