Hi,
Recently Waldek created a (forked) version of Axiom called "FriCAS",
which means "free CAS". He set things up so it builds and installs
in the SAGE environment in about 10-15 minutes (instead of hours
for the previous version of Axiom). I've created a SAGE package and
would like to request SAGE users to test out building this package on
OS X and Linux. To try the package just do this:
sage -i axiom4sage-0.3.1.spkg
After about 10-15 minutes you should then be able to do this:
sage -axiom
and see something like what is listed below. Thanks!
fermat:~/sage-2.7.3 was$ ./sage -axiom
