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.
