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?

Giovanni
