Hi,
wxMaxima suppresses disp() output in the Maxima-Init.mac file. I don?t know if there is a flag you can set to change this. It is not a bug, it?s a feature. In command line Maxima this does not happen.

Subject: syntax error in maxima-init.mac
All,
I would appreciate your review of my maxima-init.mac file. The file executes properly. Environment variables for userdir, tempdir, and file_search_... are set and Professor Woollett's mbe1util file is executed on boot of wxMaxima. However, the two disp() and print() functions do not result in output. I have reviewed the manual for display variables that may affect these functions but do not see anything specific. Therefore I assume I have a syntax error (nothing new to me). I would appreciate your review and comments.
maxima_userdir : "/home/ron/MaximaWork"$
maxima_tempdir : "/home/ron/Maxima_temp"$
file_search_maxima : append(file_search_maxima, ["/home/ron/MaximaWork/###.{mac,mc}"])$
file_search_lisp : append(["/home/ron/MaximaWork/###.lisp"],file_search_lisp)$
load (mbe1util)$
disp("Welcome Master")$
print(" mbe1util.mac functions ", functions)$
disp ("Maxima is the Future!")$
Thanks in advance
