NAME

       wxmaxima - wxWidgets interface for Maxima

SYNOPSIS

       wxmaxima  [-v]  [-h]  [-o  <str>] [-e] [-b] [--logtostderr] [--pipe] [--exit-on-error] [-f
       <str>] [-u <str>] [-l <str>] [-X <str>] [-m <str>] [--enableipc] [input file...]

DESCRIPTION

       wxMaxima is a rather self-explanatory graphical front-end to the Maxima  computer  algebra
       system.  It provides a graphical interface and 2D formatted output display for Maxima. Its
       menu system facilitates access to a huge part of the Maxima native  set  of  commands  and
       also  to  a  browsable  Maxima  help.  The  dialogue windows make easy the introduction of
       mathematical entities such as limits, matrices, etc. Besides that, it extends Maxima  with
       a  few powerful features like the ability to create diagrams with one parameter bound to a
       slider gui control.

       One can create worksheets, which can include mathematical cells (and the results) but also
       different headlines, text cells, images, page breaks, etc.

       Maxima  is  a free (GPL) common lisp implementation based on the original computer algebra
       system Macsyma developed at MIT. It has full documentation (HTML and info) included.

       wxMaxima uses the cross-platform GUI toolkit wxWidgets and runs natively on many operative
       systems.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Help: prints a list of options.

       -v, --version
              Prints the current version.

       -b, --batch
              processes  the  file,  saves  it  afterward.  Will  halt if wxMaxima finds an error
              message in Maxima's output and pause if Maxima asks a question.

       -o, --open=<str>
              Open a file at startup.

       -e, --eval=<str>
              Evaluate the file after opening it.

       --logtostderr
              Log all "debug messages" sidebar messages to stderr, too.

       --pipe Pipe messages from Maxima to stdout.

       --exit-on-error
              Close the program on any Maxima error.

       -f, --ini=<str>
              Allows specifying a file to store the configuration in

       -u, --use-version=<str>
              Use Maxima version <str>.

       -l, --lisp=<str>
              Use a Maxima compiled with lisp compiler <str>.

       -X, --extra-args=<str>
              Allows to specify extra Maxima arguments

       -m, --maxima=<str>
              Allows to specify the location of the Maxima binary.

       --enableipc
              Lets Maxima control wxMaxima via interprocess communications. Use this option  with
              care.

FILES

       ~/.wxMaxima
              The personal wxMaxima initialization file, where user-specific settings are stored.

       ~/.maxima/wxmaxima-init.mac
              If  the  Maxima  user  directory  - usually ~/.maxima/ - contains a text file named
              wxmaxima-init.mac the contents of the file are passed to Maxima automatically every
              time a new worksheet has been started.

BUGS

       If  you  find  a  bug  in  wxMaxima,  please  report  it  in  the  wxMaxima  bug  database
       ⟨https://github.com/wxMaxima-developers/wxmaxima/issues⟩

       (Please check first, if it was not already reported.) And if you have a fix, that would be
       great. wxMaxima is an open-source project, where you can contribute.

       If  the  issue is a mathematical bug, it might be a bug in Maxima (the backend, which does
       the mathematical computations), not wxMaxima (the graphical frontend).

       The      Maxima      bug      database       is       available       at       Sourceforge
       ⟨https://sourceforge.net/p/maxima/bugs/⟩
