Does Maxima highlighting still works in Emacs in Windows?

Thanks, Leo,

Now my config in .emcas is:

 (add-to-list 'load-path "C:/Program
Files/Maxima-5.31.2/share/maxima/5.31.2/emacs")
 (autoload 'maxima-mode "maxima" "Maxima mode" t)
 (autoload 'imaxima "imaxima" "Frontend for maxima with Image support" t)
 (autoload 'maxima "maxima" "Maxima interaction" t)
 (autoload 'imath-mode "imath" "Imath mode for math formula input" t)
 (setq imaxima-use-maxima-mode-flag t)
* (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ma[cx]" . maxima-mode))*

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MaximaMode does not include the last line.
That is why I can not get mac files automatically highlighted. I have now
updated that wiki item.
