I just installed TeXmacs (version 1.0.6 on kubuntu), but I also have trouble getting it to work with axiom. Additionally,it seems extremely slow, but maybe that's due to my laptop showing its age.Probably both. Even on a reasonably fast dual processor AMD 4300+ X2, I find TeXmacs rather slow compared to most other apps.
Oh that is a big issue. I haven't yet used TeXmacs again extensively, but this slowness in keyboard response was one of the reasons I turned away about one or two years ago.
Hi, TeXmacs developers, is there a trick to delay expensive computations until I press a button "re-beautify"? I don't need the screen output looking overly correct after every keystroke. After one sentence, or even a paragraph is completely enough for me. If I feel like working on a 8086 1MHz (not GHz) processor, then TeXmacs will not be of further consideration, no matter what features it has.
Hi Bill,
Can you tell me what you get if you just start tm_axiom on the console? E.g. $ /usr/lib/TeXmacs/bin/tm_axiom Reply to the weird looking prompt with an Axiom command, e.g. 1+1
Eh? To what prompt? woodpecker:~>type axiom axiom is hashed (/home/hemmecke/software/Axiom/mnt/linux/bin/axiom) woodpecker:~>type AXIOMsys AXIOMsys is /home/hemmecke/software/Axiom/mnt/linux/bin/AXIOMsys woodpecker:~>/usr/lib/texmacs/TeXmacs/bin/tm_axiom verbatim:latex:\red Unexpected end\black5woodpecker:~>
I am getting back to the command line prompt. No axiom session started. Ralf
