For information about using Axiom with TeXmacs see:

http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/TeXmacs

Axiom is a formerly commercial product and has sophisticated
graphics, over 1000 mathematical domains, a library compiler
(Aldor), extensive documentation and a hypertex documentation
browser. The TeXmacs interface for Axiom currently provides
basic access to the Axiom interpreter. The Axiom developers
are looking for people to assist with updating and completing
this interface for TeXmacs.

Feel free to drop in or email. :)
