Sage (as of 4.7) uses pexpect to communicate with Maxima.  The main
places you'll want to look are in
$SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage/sage/interfaces/maxima.py and
$SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage/sage/interfaces/expect.py .

In an 4.7.1, Sage will use ECL to use Maxima as "library" for it's
internal use of Maxima. See
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7377 for more information on
this.
