Ploblem with installation on WinXP (5.9.3)



Hello,

>what happens if you execute the memory image directly?

Indeed, it does nothing :). No messages or errors.

>is maxima installed in the default location

Yes, it is. I tryed several locations.

Were any changes made for 5.9.3 windows version since 
5.9.2.99?

what happens if you execute the memory image directly?
if i recall correctly it is named maxima.exe and it is 
somewhere
under lib. maxima.exe should show a GCL banner, i think.
maxima.exe  -eval "(cl-user::run)" should start maxima.

is maxima installed in the default location (c:\program 
files\...)
or somewhere else?

not really sure what's going on here,
