Its abilities include basic algebraic manipulation, symbolic integration, 2D and 3D plotting, and an ODE solver. << DescUsage:<< If you have trouble installing with Fink Commander, try installing from the command line (and don't divert the output to a file). Enter "maxima" to get a command line interface. The script "xmaxima" provides a graphical interface using the tcltk wish shell. To take advantage of this, either install tcltk using fink (for an X-windows interface) or from Apple's downloads page (for an aqua interface). If you have both versions of tcltk installed, you may need to edit the opening lines of /sw/bin/xmaxima to point to the correct wish. << HomePage: http://maxima.sourceforge.net
