Running Maxima from Java...



I can't answer your question about plots, but it is possible
to import latex into TeXmacs.  I would be very interested
in seeing your Java program, since I have students working
on similar projects, also involving speech recognition.
It is easier to say "bold script capital A"  than to get
a handwriting recognition program to read it.
