ilt()



That's a decent idea, I might try that.  

Just for completeness, the Mathematica Notebook I am trying to port to
Maxima can be found here:

http://bigwww.epfl.ch/demo/Esplines/

It's probably trivial for someone who knows both packages, but I'm just
learning Maxima, and I don't even have Mathematica.  (I'm just using
MathReader to view the notebook.)

Thanks,
-Frank

Sorry about the empty message last time; finger twitch.
You might divide out the zero zero's and reinsert them after the transform
as differentiations. If that's not clear I could make a wrapper this
weekend; ilt_s(), or something.
