Hi Robert,

the issue you are helping with may be the same issue I and Jeroen Wouters tried to help with in the TeXmacs forum. Please see http://forum.texmacs.cn/t/install-texmacs-with-maxima-on-mac-with-m1/614/10

The current status of that issue (linked post) is that we think we may get Maxima to work under TeXmacs if we are able to get the operating system "as seen from TeXmacs" see the command "maxima", which is not true at the moment (see http://forum.texmacs.cn/t/install-texmacs-with-maxima-on-mac-with-m1/614/6), and we think we would be able to do that if we would change the PATH environment variable seen from TeXmacs---which we do not know how to do, neither of us has a Mac.

If it is the same issue, do you have an idea of how to fix TeXmacs seeing a different environment than the terminal?

Hi, I'm trying to understand how to help someone who is having trouble
with using TeXmacs on M1 macOS.

Do I understand correctly that a separate installation of Maxima is
required, on all platforms, in order to be able to launch a Maxima
session in TeXmacs? and likewise, the same goes for other programs
which provide TeXmacs sessions such as Matlab and R? and perhaps
Scheme is the only built-in session?

Thank you for clarifying this point, it will help me figure out what to do.

best,
