David,

I have tested Maxima 5.27 on windows xp and your 'wxplot2d' example
works fine.

If I move the new files 'draw.lisp' and 'grcommon.lisp' to
folder /share/draw, then the wxdraw?d functions also work as expected.

I don't see any other problems.

Also note that changes in the draw package don't affect the plot?d
routines.
