Hello All,

I've recently been working on some Emacs Lisp code to help me explore and use FriCAS more effectively. I did this because I found the existing combination of Hyperdoc and fricas-mode a bit clumsy to use together, and also because I wanted to write something from scratch in Emacs Lisp to force me to properly understand certain aspects of Emacs.

The result is a small collection of code at bitbucket.org that implements four major modes for interacting with FriCAS and editing input script and SPAD code. Its main features at the moment are syntax highlighting of packages, domains and categories in distinct faces, and easy access to popup buffers allowing the examination (and re-examination) of these constructors and their associated operations.

The code is at:
  http://bitbucket.org/pdo/axiom-environment
and should be easy to setup for Emacs-savvy users after reading the short README document. It should also be useful for Axiom and OpenAxiom systems, though I haven't yet tested it on such systems.

This started out as a personal project, and is released as open source in the hope it will be useful to others too. It is a project ``in development'', and probably always will be, but should be stable and simple enough to be useful as it stands (I hope).

Any feedback appreciated,
Paul
