maxima+xmaxima: can't type into Console

2013-11-13 Thread Murray Eisenberg
I installed maxima @5.30.0_0+xmaxima. By itself, the command-line maxima works 
(so far) as expected.

When, instead, I start xmaxima from the command-line, I get two windows — 
Xmaxima: browser and Xmaxima: console. If I double-click one of the highlighted 
lines in the Xmaxima: browser window, then the output appears in the 
Xmaxima:browser window, and both the input and corresponding output appear in 
the Xmaxima:console window as well.

But I cannot type any input directly into the Xmaxima: console window. 
Shouldn’t I be able to do so? And, if not, how can one enter input of one’s own 
(instead of just evaluate what’s in the prepared html page showing in the 
Xmaxima:browser window?

Yes, that's intentional.
The browser just shows you a section from the manual, which you're advised to 
click through to show off some of maxima's and xmaxima's features.

 But I cannot type any input directly into the Xmaxima: console window. 
 Shouldn’t I be able to do so? And, if not, how can one enter input of one’s

You should be able to enter your own lines in the console.
If not, which Mac OS version are you using?
Here on my SL it works seamlessly.

Greets,
Marko

P.S.: Perhaps you would like to install wxMaxima and try that too.

error on installing cmake

2013-11-13 Thread Gmail
Hi all

I successfully installed cmake separately, not using macports. However when I 
try to install gdl3, it still include cmake as dependency. macports still try 
to install cmake, without knowing cmake is already installed. So what should I 
do to make macports know that I have installed cmake and where I have installed 
cmake. Any help is welcome. I real appreciate it.

Thank you
Bruce

You don't. MacPorts uses only its own, for good reason.

Looks like only some users are seeing it and it may depend on how Xcode was
installed. (Possibly some installation methods require you to run it once
to finish setting itself up?)

The error noted in the Portfile immediately makes me think it's not so much
a Mavericks as a clang issue... and
http://trac.macports.org/ticket/40988agrees. You could edit the
Portfile locally (sudo port edit
gnudatalanguage) to remove the platform darwin block, and then build it
with

sudo port install gnudatalanguage configure.compiler=macports-gcc-4.8
