Yes you are probably right. My minimal install needs to be a little
less
limited than envisioned. I'll start from scratch some other day

This gives a syntax error

/usr/local/sage/local/bin/sage-maxima.lisp: line 1: syntax error near
unexpected token `;'
/usr/local/sage/local/bin/sage-maxima.lisp: line 1: `;(setf *prompt-
