Hello everybody,

I have just installed Sage Version 4.3.5, Release Date: 2010-03-28 on
my laptop MacBook with MacOS X 10.5.8, by compiling the source code.

There was no problem during the compilation.

But now i can't use maxima. For exemple, if i enter
f = maxima.eval('ij_entry[i,j] := i/j')

the full answer is:

ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input
The following traceback may be corrupted or invalid
The error message is: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (47, 0))
