Amazing. Almost the same idea I was telling here few months ago. Except that in my opinion LyX should be able to process math-ed equations with Maxima (not just have Ascii-Maxima mode). > from documentation thus far, but I plan to start using it for my work. I'm already using :) a little though

Hi Just watched the Tcisofts homepage. www.tcisoft.com There was several nice new "features in the latest version of scientific workplace". Among other improvements, MuPAD can now be used with scientific workplace as an alternative to Maple. A feature like the suggested one seems to pop up here

While we're spouting off about possible new features, what about a computer math environment interface in a LyX document? Even if the output is limited to a code environment, it might be nice for generating a report of a computation in real time. Maxima (GPL'ed version of Macsyma) is available. T
