Thanks. It looks like it will be complicated to setup on my system. I started on that and got stuck on step 6. I am a programmer though, so I will figure it out. I am not sure if it is that much better that wxMaxima, the screen shots look better but now I have to learn emacs and a the other non Windows programs.
Thanks,
Rich

I guess I will comment. I have just started using IMaxima. It is a mode for Emacs. Emacs is an old, yet very actively used and developed text editor.
IMaxima is quite good. You should check out the website http://members3.jcom.home.ne.jp/imaxima/Site/Welcome.html which has installation directions and examples.
It will render Maxima's TeX output for you (making the output look nice). Also, since it is run from inside Emacs, you have all of the Emacs functionality available to you which may or may not be present in wxMaxima (e.g. command completion, syntax highlighting, automatic code indentation, and an `MDI' although a little bit different than the standard windows setup).

Anyone know what IMaxima is and how do you run it? Is it as good as wxMaxima? I am, I guess "into" user interfaces and the presentation layer for Maxima.
