Yes that's all you need. But doing it is a lot of work because it's
all quite manual. And you have to understand how the Lisp side wants
to work and how the C side wants to work. Sometimes they don't want
to work together because the assumptions are different.
It can be done, but it's not easy. I'd prefer a Lisp solution if
possible, especially because every one wins, not just the the lucky
ones which are using that particular system.
But, I don't normally use maxima for computation; I use it for
symbolic results.
