Hallo Stavros,
thanks for your reply.
The running of my Mxima codes on Unix is without problem, which Lisp
implementation type is SBCL.
I think, the problem is what Robert explained about GCL.
I will try to recompile Maxima via the Lisp program ASDF but I am
waiting for the answer of Robert.
Best regards
Sara
you are interested.
