    TEXmacs interfaces to Maxima, MuPAD and REDUCE A. G. Grozin Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, Novosibirsk 630090, Russia [email protected] Abstract GNU TEXmacs is a free wysiwyg word processor providing an excellent typesetting quality of texts and formulae. It can also be used as an interface to Computer Algebra Systems (CASs). In the present work, interfaces to three general-purpose CASs have been implemented. 1 TEXmacs GNU TEXmacs [1] is a free (GPL) word processor which typesets texts and mathematical formulae with very high quality (like LAT X), • E emphasizes the logical structure of a document rather than its appearance (like • LATEX), is easy to use and intuitive (like typical wysiwyg word processors), • arXiv:cs/0107036v2 [cs.SC] 31 Jul 2001 can be extended by a powerful programming language (like Emacs), • can include PostScript figures (as well as other figures which can be converted • to PostScript), can export LAT X, and import LAT X and html, • E E supports a number of languages based on Latin and Cyrillic alphabets. • It uses TEX fonts both on screen and when printing documents. Therefore, it is truly wysiwyg, with equally good quality of on-screen and printed documents (in contrast to LyX which uses X fonts on screen and calls LATEX for printing). There is a similar commercial program called Scientific Workplace (for Windows). TEXmacs can also be used as an interface to any CAS which can generate LATEX output. It renders LATEX formulae on the fly, producing CAS output with highest 1 typesetting quality (better than, e.g., Mathematica, which uses fixed-width fonts for formula output).

Special thanks to Gilbert Ashley, the author of src2pkg, for his approval and support throughout this redesign. Thanks to Piete Sartain for adminstrating the src2pkg wiki and Drew Ames for the writing much of the great documentation on the src2pkg wiki. I would also like to thank Dr. Alexander Dekhtyar for acting as my advisor for my rst senior project idea. Abstract Package managers ease installation and removal of applications. How- ever, as the name indicates, in order for a package manager to be useful, they need packages created from upstream sources to manage. This is the purpose of src2pkg, a toolkit written in Bash shell script which automates many package creation tasks. src2pkg, however, suers from major de- sign aws that cripple its ability to package some exotic upstream sources.
