I noticed there is a remarkable difference between tm_reduce and tm_maxima.

tm_maxima invokes maxima.bat in a specific case:

#!/bin/sh
if [ -e $TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/plugins/maxima ]; then
  TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH="$TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/plugins/maxima/lisp"
else
  TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH="$TEXMACS_PATH/plugins/maxima/lisp"
fi
export TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH
case $1 in
  cygwin) exec maxima.bat -p "`echo
$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima.lisp|cygpath --windows -f -`";;
  *) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p "$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima.lisp";;
esac

On the other hand tm_reduce does NOT invoke redpsl.bat:

#!/bin/sh -f
TEXMACS_REDUCE_PATH="$TEXMACS_PATH/plugins/reduce"
export TEXMACS_REDUCE_PATH
exec redpsl

Is this important?
Yes, maybe, this is the reason. What happens if you run tm_reduce from the command line? If things work, you should see something like

Loading image file: /home/grozin/reduce-4972/scripts/../pslbuild/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/red/reduce.img

Reduce (Free PSL version, revision 4972), 30-Apr-2019 ...

channel:promptlatex:REDUCE 1: ]\

If not, you will, probably, see some error message. You can replace redpsl -> redpsl.bat in tm_reduce and try again.
