how do I install Emaxima on windows?



Hi,

the file .emacs is not created untill you actually change some
settings. So change some options from the options menu and the select
'save options' from options menu. Now search for the .emacs file. If
you do not have a HOME variable set then it is likely it will be
C:\.emacs.

Now add this to your .emacs file

(setq load-path (cons "C:/Program
Files/Maxima-5.9.3.99rc4/share/maxima/5.9.3.99rc4/emacs" load-path))

(autoload 'maxima-mode "maxima" "Maxima mode" t)
(autoload 'maxima "maxima" "Maxima interaction" t)
(autoload 'emaxima-mode "emaxima" "EMaxima" t)
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.mac" . maxima-mode) auto-mode-alist))

and you should be ready to use emaxima after you restart emacs.

HTH,
Andrej
