O.K. I am using maxima, but errors remain the same with xmaxima.
This is what I do:
I enter maxima and type
-----------------------------------------
(C1) writefile("session03.mac");
Starts dribbling to session03.mac (2003/11/10, 19:37:1).
(D1) FALSE
(C2) 5+4;
(D2) 9
(C3) closefile();
Finished dribbling to session03.mac.
(D3) FALSE
-----------------------------------------
This is the content of the file session03.mac :
-----------------------------------------
Starts dribbling to session03.mac (2003/11/10, 19:37:1).
(D1) FALSE
(C2)
5+4;
(D2) 9
(C3)
closefile();
-----------------------------------------
Then I restart maxima (still in the same directory as
session03.mac) and do
-----------------------------------------
(C1) load("session03.mac");
stdin:17:Incorrect syntax: dribbling is not an infix operator
Starts dribbling
^
(C2) batch("session03.mac");
batching #p/root/Desktop/session03.mac
stdin:17:Incorrect syntax: dribbling is not an infix operator
Starts dribbling
^
----------------------------------------
I think this means, that session03.mac is found by maxima, but
maxima cannot interpret it's content.

Oh, yes. I just read % not %th() .
