Doesn't that use wxMaxima? Will wxMaxima will for you?
I don't use wxMaxima, but with a suitable lisp capable of unicode, I can
do things like:
(%i15) display2d:false;
(%o15) false
(%i16) ?^2+2*?*?+?^2;
(%o16) ?^2+2*?*?+?^2
(%i17) factor(%);
(%o17) (?+?)^2
(Note that I entered the alpha character as alpha, using a single
keystroke from the keyboard, using the appropriate input method.)
But %pi still comes out as %pi, which is different from ?.
