wouldn't it be nice to optionally ship a version
of sloane's integer sequences with maxima?
see url:
http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/Seis.html
and have a function ala
identify_integer_sequence([a1,a2,a3,...] )
which gives some information of similar sequences.
I'm working most the time offline,
and that would be a cool feature for maxima,
The sequences are available in two gzip archives (12 megs).
