TeXmacs and maxima-5.14.0



Hello *,

In order to run maxima-5.14.0 from TeXmacs, you should apply the following 
trivial patch.

Those who already have TeXmacs installed can just edit 2 scripts, 
maxima_detect and tm_maxima (they usually live in 
/usr/libexec/TeXmacs/bin/). You don't need to recompile anything.

Joris, I hope you will include this patch to cvs.

By the way, what do you all think - if we drop support of *really* ancient 
versions of maxima (<=5.9.2), then the scripts can be greatly simplified. 
This still leaves a lot of supported versions - 5.9.3 to 5.14.0. Maybe, 
it's time to do this?

Happy new year,
Andrey
