Hi,
xmaxima worked on my system running Mac OS 10.1.3, I could even plot.
You can get more details with Justin C. Walker. Also, I'm running an
old version of maxima-pre59 and I'd appreciate to receive some
instructions about how to build the latest snapshot.
Unfortunately the native implementation of Tcl/Tk for Mac OS X has a lot
of bugs and my session crashed. After that, I couldn't run xmaxima
anymore. Since my build of maxima-pre59 stays at $home, I'm afraid it
could have damaged sources or binaries (Is it possible?). Anyway, I
reinstalled Tcl/Tk framework and wish shell, but it still hangs on
startup, it's really funny to see...
I'll try to recompile the sources; so, please help me. (Mr. Yasuaki
Honda, are you listening?)
