While looking at the minpack vs $jacobian autoload, I noticed that
src/max_ext.lisp contains the list of things that should autoload. Is
that correct?
It seems to me that it would be nice if we could look through the share
directory for an autoload file that defines what the share package wants
to be autoloaded? Less work for maxima, and it allows share packages
not included with maxima itself to define what it wants to be
autoloaded. It also reduces the coupling of the core maxima code with
the share packages.
Anyway, just a thought. I haven't tried to implement any of this.
