[Axiom-developer] FW: [TeXmacs] Axiom plugin

[Page, Bill]

Tim, Camm;

Is there something about the debian version of open
axiom that I don't understand? I thought we had worked
out that TeXmacs should always call AXIOMsys. No?

On a debian system, for instance, the axiom binary is called just "axiom"
(the axiom plugin for texmacs on debian is patched accordingly).

My PC info: Red Hat-9.0

As "README" suggestion, I make the source in /mnt/sda7/LiveCAS/axiom/
, copy whole the directory, mnt/linux, to /usr/local/axiom and

export AXIOM=/usr/local/axiom
export PATH=$AXIOM/bin:$PATH
ln -s /usr/local/axiom/bin/axiom /usr/local/bin

Also compile and install TeXmacs-1.0.3.3 in /usr/local. But no option of
axiom
in the [Text]->[session]. So I change the code in tm_axiom.c, now the option

appears. I had searched from google about such info's but nothing found. So
I
use this method to solve it.  

Best regards,

huang,

What do you mean "there is no axiom icon"? Were
did you obtain this icon? And how does the presence
of abscence of the icon affect TeXmacs?

'axiom' is the name of a script that starts other
processes besides the one that is needed for TeXmacs.
'AXIOMsys' is the name of the Axiom binary. This is
all that is needed for Axiom. This binary is provided
by both old commercial version and the open source
version of Axiom.

  http://www.nongnu.org/axiom/

The Axiom plug-in was recently changed to accomodate
the fact that earler versions of open axiom only had
AXIOMsys.

Perhaps your problem with "axiom icon" is caused
by something else?

Regards,
Bill Page.
