Where can I find the manual about socket communication with Maxima ?



Hi,

1. you have to create a socket server (Maxima does not act as a
server!). 
2. connect Maxima to this socket (as a client):
 Windows:  pathTo\maxima.bat -s portNr
 Linux:    maxima -s portNr
3. now the server itself or another socket client can communicate to
Maxima over the socket using the corresponding in/output-streams of the
socket-connections.

I went through this in Java. If you are interested, I can send you my
files. But more interesting for you might be the source code of
wxMaxima:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxmaxima/files/wxMaxima/0.8.4/wxMaxima-0.8.4.tar.gz/download
In wxMaxima.cpp you can read this in C++. This might be more helpful if
you program in C#.
