At the moment, the help buffers are not "editing-protected"
so you may edit them as you wish (and in particular launch
computer algebra sessions). Nevertheless, help buffers usually
are write-protected in the sense that you will not be able
to save them under the same name (for the TeXmacs help buffers
this is enforced; for the other help it results from the fact that
you do not have the necessary permissions as an ordinary user,
but I might have to do something here).

Best wishes,

Joris
