imaxima, xemacs and windows



I earlier wrote that i could not get maxima-5.9.0 to work in xemacs in 
windows. It appears this was just beacuse the maxima.bat and maxima.exe 
have the same names before the ending. I managed to correct this by 
copying maxima.bat to a higher directory and setting this as the 
location of maxima in the imaxima-customization. In the path I have both 
directories, the higher directory first, so that the .bat file is always 
found first and that bat file will then find maxima.exe.

Mike, make sure that imaxima finds imaxima.lisp. Sometimes it gives an 
error message if it doesn’t find it but not always. For me setting the 
full path to imaxima.lisp in imaxima-customization group works. I’m not 
familiar with unix and windows filenaming differences but I noticed the 
following:

Lisp File: c:\\gnu\\imaxima.lisp this works
Lisp File: c:/gnu/imaxima.lisp this works
Lisp File: c:\gnu\imaxima.lisp with this I get the same error as Mike

I have tried the patch but where should I get the message of the 
commands sent to gs? In Emacs? Pressings ‘C-h-l’ in xemacs shows the gnu 
general public license.
