Re: [fricas-devel] FriCAS 1.3.6 problem with greek symbols (Was "problem with TeXmacs interface")
I am now using fricas built from git master today (1) -> )version Value = "FriCAS 2020-04-23 compiled at Thu Oct 22 20:23:50 EDT 2020" I also tried fricas with the -rl option as suggested by Ralf. After installing the rlwrap program wspage@desktop:~$ rlwrap --version rlwrap 0.43 $ fricas -rl worked perfectly for me - including command line editing with Greek characters. I am running Linux Mint 18.3 on my desktop. You might want to check the locale setting on your computer. I have $ wspage@desktop:~$ locale LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_CA:en LC_CTYPE="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_ALL= You should probably have something similar regarding UTF-8 but probably different language.

Thank you Bill and Ralph. Ok, I went back to 1.3.6.

Re: [fricas-devel] FriCAS 1.3.6 problem with greek symbols (Was "problem with TeXmacs interface")
Try starting fricas like this: $ fricas -noclef Doing this avoids the command line problem for me. "clef" is the old Axiom alternative to readline and is still used by default. Of course without clef (and without building FriCAS especially to support readline) you lose the usual command line editing. I am not sure if the TeXmacs interface already avoids using clef or not.
