Hi Philippe,

Thank you for the explanation. It sounds interesting to fully utilize
the new features in Mathematica. In order to see whether we have hope to
improve the interface, I hacked into the plugin a bit. The outcome looks
optimistic. Now I am able to export the figure as a temporary file (all
formats are available as long as Mathematica supports).

Currently I need to find a way to present the figure in TeXmacs
instantly after the typing. For the EPS file, is that simply put the EPS
script into the buffer? I got the plain text as a result...

Moreover, how to load a figure into TeXmacs from this temporary file,
like a .PNG file? I think that should be quite simple, though I don't
have much time to dig further...

I attached the (ugly!) modified tm_mathematica.c file here to present
the idea. Some explanations are shown as following.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on the original code
("/texmacs-texmacs/src/plugins/mathematica/src.lazy/tm_mathematica.c"),
the new version of MathLink seems no long deals with the obsolete packet
"DISPLAYPKT", where the original code handled the PS display. Instead,
almost all useful return values are directed into "TEXTPACKET". If one
inputs "Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 1}]" or whatever plotting command, the
return value is always a TEXTPACKET starting with "Graphics" or
"Graphics3D" after "Print[]". Such objects cannot be handled by the
TeXForm[] function, therefore error message is raised. On the other
hand, if it is some ordinary expressions, they are readily converted
into the corresponding TeX strings (still there are incorrect
"translations" with the TeXForm[] function).

So, I think the solution may be firstly to identify the type of the
object returned by Mathematica, then we tackle with it according to its
type. In this case, we need twice evaluations, but the second evaluation
uses the return valued from the first one. I did not see performance
deterioration.

For the first evaluation, we can use
Print[ExportString[ToExpression[expr], "Text"]] and return a string as
the universal representation. In the second evaluation, if the string
starts with "Graphics", we reevaluate it with Export["./tmp.eps",
ToExpression[str]] or whatever format and obtain a temporary file from
the plot. Otherwise, we use Print[TeXForm[ToExpression[str]]] to get TeX
strings, just as usual. I even see some objects like "Button" can be
treated in the same way.



Best,
Tian-Min
