Re: [Maxima-discuss] maxima-jupyter on windows - partial success

[Robert D. <rob...@gm...>]

David, thanks for your interest in maxima-jupyter, I salute your dedication.

Last time I tried installing it (on an Ubuntu-derived system), I ran
into a lot of trouble with pzmq. I seem to recall I had to patch the C
library or something crazy like that ... The whole process took
several hours but I did get the whole thing working. Most of the
trouble was in pzmq and maybe another library.

It occurs to me that maybe dumping the Lisp image is not really
necessary -- now that I think about it, maybe loading the required
files at start-up time is enough. But maybe there was some other
motivation that I don't remember now.

About plotting, the method which I figured out is to define a
simplification for 'plot2d(...) noun expressions which returns an svg
image. Did you write 'plot2d(...) instead of plot2d(...) ? Although I
seem to recall plot2d(...) should also work, it just launches a
separate Gnuplot viewer to display the plot.

I don't know what's going on with questions from Maxima.

best,
Robert Dodier
