Hi,
After having ported several versions of MuPAD to FreeBSD I no longer
have the time to work on it, and -- on behalf of the MuPAD people --
I'm looking for someone to take over.
>From the MuPAD announcement:
"MuPAD is a system for symbolic and numeric computation, parallel
mathematical programming and mathematical visualization. It is intended
to be a 'general purpose' computer algebra system.
MuPAD has easy-to-use language constructs for parallel programming. A
prerelease Version for parallel programming exists for Sequent and Sun
multiprocessor machines. Programming in MuPAD's own programming
language is supported by a comfortable source code debugger.
Window-based user interfaces for MuPAD exist for the X-Window-System
and the Apple Macintosh... "
MuPAD is free, but you have to register and they don't want the sources
floating all over the net, that's why they release only binaries.
People wanting to do this can contact me and I'll direct them to the proper
MuPAD persons. It's usually not so hard to port the sources. Now and then
I run into some Xview incompatibilities. So you'll have to know something
about that too.
see:
http://math-www.uni-paderborn.de/MuPAD/
ftp://ftp.uni-paderborn.de:/pub/unix/MuPAD/unix
to check out MuPAD. There's no FreeBSD version there at the moment,
because the current version is not yet ported ....
Regards,
Marc.
