I strongly disagree with the idea not to use TeX and instead produce
Postscript: This would imply that I would have to retype the whole thing
to get it properly into my article. I find it easier to adjust output
rather than to retype it! Furthermore, why do you think it would be easier
for maxima to do the formatting? After all, quite some years went into the
TeX development, I would find it rather sad to reinvent the wheel. I do
not understand why it would be easier for maxima to decide how to break
lines than for TeX. It is probably that maxima knows better to *rewrite*
stuff, i.e. write
(a+b+c)/(x+y+z)
instead of
a+b+c
-----
x+y+z
but in this case, maxima could just provide both forms and let TeX decide
which fits nicer on the paper...
