[sci.math] MACSYMA

edwards@uwmacc.UUCP (mark edwards) (10/23/86)

   We have a copy of macsyma (304) from Symbolics that works under BSD4.2, 
   but not under 4.3. I have heard rumors that macsyma 309 works with 4.3
   possibly with some modifications.  I also beleive that if we could get
   the source to 304 we could compile it and have it work under 4.3. 
   
    Does anybody out there in net land have a copy that works under 4.3.   
    If so where did you get it? What if anything did you have to do to 
    get it to work?


   Presently the only place to get a copy of macsyma are:

    Symbolics :  no sources 
    National Energy Software Center: They supply sources but cost seems
				     to be high. 
				     $3,000 for general license.
				     $2,000 + for license for vaxima

	

  Does anybody have any further information ? Like if macsyma from 
  National Energy Software will compile and run under Eunice ?
