1 Maxima 5.45-post change log
2 ===========================
9 * new additional package quantum_computing: a simulator of quantum computing
14 * new code to commute conjugate of derivative (Commit [565fcf])
15 * new function gnuplot_send (Commit [54380c])
16 * plot2d, plot3d, mandelbrot and julia now use gnuplot_pipes by default
17 in all operating systems and in all cases (plot shown on the screen or
18 saved to a graphics file). No temporary files are used.
22 * draw: Restored the detfault gnuplot_pipes format (Commit [a54f2f])
23 * draw: Restores the window, font and size options for defaut
24 terminal (Commit [096f0b])
29 Changes in the Windows installer:
30 ---------------------------------
31 * Update SBCL, wxMaxima, TCL/TK.
32 A newer Gnuplot version is available, but causes problems when using
33 pipes on Windows, therefore that was not updated.
34 * Use the HTML manual (not the PDF version) in the start menu.
35 * Strip included C programs (saves some space).
