RE: file_search_maxima on Windows



Dear All,

I had the same problem as Chris. The solution proposed by Marco did not work for me, but this worked:

file_search_maxima: append(file_search_maxima, [sconcat("yourpath/###.{mac,mc}")])$

(instead of file_search_lisp)

Best regards,

                G?ran
