The following worked for me this morning (although the
combination isn't successful on this PC):
1. Get the cygwin clisp-2.31 binary proposed for inclusion in cygwin
ftp://ftp2.cons.org/pub/lisp/clisp/binaries/latest/cygwin/clisp-2.31-1.tar.bz2
(I haven't much experience with this version of clisp, but it proposed
for inclusion in cygwin, so I thought I would try it.)
2. Untar it into /
cd /
tar xjf /tmp/clisp-2.31-1.tar.bz2
3. Untar maxima tarball (I used maxima-5.9.0.tar.gz from maxima.sf.net)
4. Build and install maxima. I used both maxima-5.9.0.tar.gz from
maxima.sf.net and 5.9.0.1cvs from CVS
cd /usr/local/src (or wherever)
tar xzf /tmp/maxima-5.9.0.tar.gz
cd maxima-5.9.0
./configure
make
make check
make install
5. Build and install TeXmacs
cd /usr/local/src (or wherever)
tar xzf TeXmacs-1.0.1.21-src.tar.gz
cd TeXmacs-1.0.1.21-src
./configure
make
make install
Unfortunately the texmacs and maxima don't work together on this PC.
