NAME

       wxmaxima — wxWidgets interface for maxima

SYNOPSIS

       wxmaxima

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the wxmaxima command.

       It  was  written  for  the  Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
       Instead, it has documentation in it's Help       menu.

       wxmaxima is a rather self-explanatory front-end to the maxima computer  algebra  system.  It  provides  a
       graphical  interface and 2D formated output display for maxima. Its menu system facilitates the 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.

       maxima  is  a free (GPL) common lisp implementation based of the original computer algebra system Macsyma
       developed at MIT. It has full documentation (HTML and info) included in the maxima-doc Debian package.

       It uses the cross-platform GUI toolkit wxWidgets and runs natively on different operative systems.
