The point of ev is to provide a functionality where a whole bunch of
things get done at
the same time. It's pretty clear that people agonized over this.
If you decide that you don't want to use this, that's OK. That's not a
good enough reason to retire
a facility that has been around for about 45 years.
I think the documentation in the Maxima manual could be improved. What
else is
new..
