imaxima, xemacs and windows



I haven't been installing any of this stuff, but
now that I see that imaxima is using breqn, my
interest in doing so takes a major drop.  I have
tried breqn and found it to be slow and not
able to break up anything but very simple
expressions.

Are people actually using this collection for
non-trivial calculations? If you have
LOOONG expressions, the splitting must be computed
in maxima, not after mactex does its job.
