[gentoo-dev] Hi guys !!

[Rafael Fernández]

Hi !!

How are you all ? I've been using Gentoo for a couple of months and I really like it. I've been working little hard for Debian until now, for 2 years more or less, but it is a very slow-motion distribution, and I like the agility that Gentoo has.

I'm studying Computer Science in Madrid (Spain), and I've to sit for my final exams. What a surprise when I had to study Algebra and I couldn't find wxMaxima in Portage... Well, I want to know how to make ebuilds (please if you could send me the web site that explains it), but the main reason because I write here is that I suggest you to make an ebuild for wxmaxima: http://wxmaxima.sourceforge.net, there is the source-code and I have read somewhere that is GPL licensed, so there won't be any legal troubles.

Thank you so much.

I think wxMaxima came up on the gentoo-science list; there may already
be a request for an ebuild and someone may even have done it. Meanwhile,
ordinary Maxima, including the standard X interface, is already in
Portage. So are emacs, xemacs and texmacs, all of which provide a
user-friendly interface to Maxima. I personally use it from texmacs,
because it formats the results in highly-readable mathematical form,
rather than the "ASCII art" format of conventional Maxima. Will wxMaxima
do that?

In the future, please search the web and read the Gentoo documentation
(read: manual) before posting questions and requests such as the above. You may
need to spend an extra five minutes of your time, but you'll do everyone a
favor by reducing the amount of message clutter on the list.
