Has anybody here tried working with Maxima in Slime? I have managed to figure out how to load it (start slime with sbcl, load maxima-build.lisp, then do (maxima-load) to load the fasl files) and typing (run) will start Maxima OK, but then when I tried to do load("./file.mac"); I got some kind of error (don't have exact error on this machine, but can be provided.)
that would be very helpfull.

Has anybody tried working with Maxima inside SLIME? I am definitely interested in this based on limited experience working without it, but I don't know how much of an ordeal it might be.
afaik maxim runs inside its own repl, this could interfer with slime.
Hmm. So it might take coding up a special REPL? Cheers, CY __________________________________ Discover Yahoo! Find restaurants, movies, travel and more fun for the weekend. Check it out! http://discover.yahoo.com/weekend.html
