Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wxmaxima"
* Package name : wxmaxima
Version : 15.08.1-1
Upstream Author : Andrej Vodopivec <[email protected]>
* URL : wxmaxima.sourceforge.net
* License : GPL 2+
Section : math
It builds those binary packages:
wxmaxima - GUI for the computer algebra system Maxima
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/wxmaxima
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this
command:
dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/wxmaxima/wxmaxima_15.08.1-1.dsc
wxMaxima is a full-featured graphical user interface for maxima, a
computer algebra system (cas).
Computer algebra systems allow to do any kind of maths with a computer
in a comfortable way. This includes all calculations that one would
expect from a computer and that result in a number. Maxima is
especially well-equipped for this task: Besides the floats the
processor hardware can handle it allows to use arbitrary-length
floating-point numbers and exact fractions of numbers whose size is
only limited by the computer's memory. But the thing a cas is
specialized in is actually finding the equation that solves a problem.
One simple example would be:
(%i7) solve(b^2+a^2 = c^2,b);
(%o7) [b = -sqrt(c^2-a^2),b = sqrt(c^2-a^2)]
But maxima will try to find a equation that solves a differential
equation or a differential, as well.
More information about wxMaxima can be obtained from
http://wxmaxima.sourceforge.net.
The only change since the last upload on the debian specific side is an
updated ChangeLog entry.
In the code there have been loads of enhancements, though:
* Most important is that this package now is compatible with maxima
5.37.0
* Syntax highlighting in code cells
* MathJAX now provides scaleable equations and extended drag-and-drop
for the html export.
* The table-of-contents-sidebar now shows the current cursor position
* Fixed a few instances of cursors jumping out of the screen
* Fixed a few instances of cursors jumping to the beginning or end of
the worksheet
* Better detection which cell maxima is processing and if it still is
doing so
* Regression: Hiding the toolbar didn't work on some systems
* Markdown support for <=, >=, <=>, <-, ->, <->, => and +/- symbols.
* An option to not export maxima's input as well as the output.
* An option to use High-resolution bitmaps for the HTML export.
* Images that are too big for the window now are displayed in a
scaled-down version.
* Fixed the support for out-of-tree-bulds that was broken in 15.04
* Meaningful ALT texts for the HTML export to provide accessibility
* An option to include the .wxmx file in the .html export
* Performance fixes that are espectionally effective for MSW
* Unification of some platform-specific code
* bash autocompletion
* A fourth sectioning level
* Made entering uppercase greek letters easier and documented how to
input special
unicode symbols
* Automatic highlighting of text equal to the currrently selected one.
* A batch mode that pauses evaluation if maxima asks a question.
* A "halt on error" feature
* Now evaluation of a new command is only triggered if evaluation of
the last
command has finished. This means that output from maxima is always
appended
to the right cell.
* Un-broke error and question handling for multiple commands per
cell. Sincewe now send
maxima's input command-per-command this means a cell with multiple
commands is no
more evaluated faster than multiple cells with single commands each.
* If ever a end-of-evaluation marker gets lost there is a new
"trigger evaluation"
menu entry in the maxima menu.
* On wxGtk autocompletion was replaced by a content assistant that is
based on the
surprisingly powerful autocompletion feature.
* Ctrl+Tab now launches the autocompletion (or content assistant, if
available)
* Tab and Shift+Tab now indent and unindent regions.
* Ctrl+Mouse wheel and Ctrl++/- now zoom in and out of the worksheet.
* Allow Extending selection from part of a single cell to multiple
cells.
* An Autoindent functionality.
Regards,
Gunter Königsmann
