I was not aware of the DMG for Maxima.
One must tell TeXmacs the location where Maxima was installed.
This can be done by doing

export PATH=/Applications/Maxima.app/Contents/Resources/maxima/bin/:PATH

before launching TeXmacs. I did the necessary in the SVN version
to make this more automatic.

My fix actually required some tweeking, because of Andrey's code
to handle several versions of Maxima. I also experienced a bug
with the latest version of maxima: there seems to be an undefined
variable TEXPORT. I have the memory of seeing some previous posts
on this issue; has this matter been solved? Andrey?

Not too recent dmg versions of Maxima should work modulo the above trick.

Best wishes, --Joris
