I never got it running. However, I did download and burn a Quantian_0.4
CD (mentioned previously),
and could run Linux + TeXmacs + Maxima from the CD. The OS also
provides web
browsing and (I guess) read-only access to your hard disks. I used a
floppy disk to
store bits and pieces I wanted to preserve.
Apparently you need to run CLISP on Cygwin with TeXmacs. Too much
hassle for
me.
