Hi all,

Still having problems with maxima sessions. Everything was working fine until I decided to compile the programs and to wait until the latests versions become available, as Andrey suggested.

So I compiled maxima 5.16.2, and it seems to work, although I haven't worked much with it.
I compiled texmacs 1.0.6.15, and it seems to work.
I've edited my maxima_detect and tm_maxima files (I join them as attachments) but I still have the error message:

  -e ed Unsupported version of maxima: 5.16.2

May be the problems come from:

~$ /root/TeXmacs-1.0.6.15-src/plugins/maxima/bin/maxima_detect
[: 39: cygwin: unexpected operator
[: 97: cygwin: unexpected operator
("5.16.2 clisp")

Thanks

JC

TeXmacs-1.0.6.11 is too old. Please edit your maxima_detect and tm_maxima
files (usually they live in /usr/libexec/TeXmacs/bin, don't know about
Debian-based systems... use locate to find them). maxima_detect should
contain

        if $MAXIMA --list-avail | grep -F "version 5.9.1
version 5.9.2
version 5.9.3
version 5.10
version 5.11
version 5.12
version 5.13
version 5.14
version 5.15" >/dev/null
        then
          # 5.9.1 or 5.9.2 or 5.9.3 or 5.10 or 5.11 or 5.12 or 5.13 or 5.14 or 5.15

and tm_maxima should contain

  5.11.* | 5.12.* | 5.13.* | 5.14.* | 5.15.*) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p "$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima-5.11.0.lisp";;

So, please, extend (shorter) lists of versions you have in your old
TeXmacs.

BTW, it is quite easy to compile TeXmacs and maxima from sources, and to
have up-to-date versions. No need to wait for Debian (&Ubuntu) people.

Andrey
