Re: [Maxima-discuss] A package for working with p-adic numbers

[José A. V. R. <jos...@gm...>]

Thank you for taking a look at the package.
I have uploaded the tex source file with everything necessary to compile
it  (I mean, everything that is not included in a standard TeX-Live
distribution).
I have never done a test file before, but it does not seem to be difficult,
I will try it right now. Same for the texi file.
All the best,
