imaxima on windows



Hi - You can do this through a Windows version of Emacs by starting up a
shell process (Alt-x shell) followed by invoking maxima.bat, which contains:

set MAXIMA_DIRECTORY=c:\maxima
c:\maxima\src\saved_maxima.exe -dir c:\maxima\src\ %1

In principle, this should allow you to use imaxima, although I have not
tried this yet.  BTW, I use either XEmacs or NT-Emacs.

 Hope this helps.
