Comment(by nbruin):
> If someone wants the maxima distributed with sage to *never* look at
{{{$HOME/.maxima}}} then one should edit the {{{sage/local/bin/maxima}}}
script to use the {{{--userdir}} command line option by default. I think
that is wrong.
However, should someone want to do this anyway, then the environment
variable $MAXIMA_USERDIR should do the trick. Thus,
{{{
MAXIMA_USERDIR=$DOT_SAGE/maxima
export MAXIMA_USERDIR
}}}
could just go into sage_env or something similar. This would be an
alternative to the attached patch.
