Thank you very much for the reply/suggestion.
I also recived  suggestions/information from:
	Vitaly Lugovsky <vsl@ontil.ihep.su>,
	osman@fuse.net
	"Lizardo H. C. M. Nunes" <lizardo@urbi.com.br>
	David Bremner <bremner@unb.ca>.

 I will try maxima with CLISP on these platforms.

Thank you again for valuable comments.
