OK. To get back to Maxima, I REALLY would like to get a printed version
of the Maxima manual in book format. The reason is that I have visual
problems (stemming from diabetes) which make extended reading much easier
for me when I am reading books instead of computer screens.
Brian Gough has informed me that he has no plans to print and sell the
Maxima manual. Is there any way to get the 5-15 manual published in
book format? I think the existence of such a book would significantly
enhance the appeal of Maxima. It would definitely speed up my
acquisition of knowledge about Maxima.
