Dear John,
Thank You for your very interesting project.
I had an idea to create something like free Mathematica basing on MAXIMA
system :).
How to do it:
1) Use R. Fateman's Mma package (copied to
http://at.sentence.ru/mma/parser.lisp). It allows to translate Mathematica
syntax to simple common lisp.
2) Use wrapper functions and simple hacks to carry the calculations in
MAXIMA: http://at.sentence.ru/mma/math.lisp . Here is a very simple Mma
program to execute: http://at.sentence.ru/mma/test.txt.
May be it will be interesting for you :).
Regards,
-Andrey
