Graphical User Interface for the maxima Computer Algebra System

wxMaxima is a cross platform GUI for the computer algebra system maxima based on wxWidgets. wxMaxima features include: * 2D formatted math display: wxMaxima implements its own math display engine to nicely display maxima output. * Menu system: most maxima commands are available through menus. Most used functions are also available through a button panel at below the input line. * Dialogs: commands which require more that one argument can be entered through dialogs so that there is no need to remember the exact syntax. * Command line history: the input line has command history and command completion based on previous input. * Create documents: text can be mixed with math calculations to create documents. See the howto for tips on how to use these features. Documents can be saved and edited again later.
