2. Try to run maxima_detect (it is in /usr/libexec/TeXmacs/bin/, or where
you installed TeXmacs). It should say something like

"5.23.1 cmucl"
"5.23.1 ecl"
"5.23.1 clisp"
"5.23.1 gcl"
"5.23.1 sbcl"
"5.23.1 openmcl"
)

Each line in the list gives the maxima version and lisp.

I doesn't proceed;

msaru@linux-6pi6:~> /usr/local/libexec/TeXmacs/bin/maxima_detect
(

Why...?
What does

maxima --list-avail

say? maxima_detect uses the output of this command. In any case, it should be not difficult to understand what happens in maxima_detect. Just insert appropriate echo commands to many points in this script, and run.

No, I get the error;

1. in case of export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8

*** - invalid byte sequence #xC0 #xA5 in CHARSET:UTF-8 conversion

2. in cese of export LC_ALL=C

*** - invalid byte #xE3 in CHARSET:ASCII conversion
Definitely, a locale problem with clisp (and clisp is rather old). Try to compile clisp with your locale. Or, better, use something faster, like sbcl. clisp runs the maxima testsuite more than 3 times longer than sbcl.
