Excellent, Giovanni! TeXmacs version 2.1.5 is fantastic. I have a problem, not with its functionality, but I want to put the new TeXmacs icon on my desktop, and I can't find the installation directory. Could you please tell me the directory where TeXmacs version 2.1 is hosted and installed? Thank you very much.

I am not confident though, that all steps I did were logical and that it could not have worked in a simpler way. But maybe this is an issue to consider as well.
