wxMaxima 20.03.1

The last release introduced an easy-to-trigger crash. In order to avoid a situation in which every packager has to search for a remedy separately a new release was made. Additional changes:

• Resolved a crash on right-clicking a GroupCell
• Help works again in the german translation
• Removed an unnecessary info dialogue on startup
• Right-click-suggestions for similar command names

As always the installers found here come without Maxima (downloadable from http://maxima.sourceforge.net) and - in case of the .exe installer without MSVC redistributable 2017.

Version-20.03.0

A bugfix-only release

• Corrected a few last bugs for pre- and post- super- and subscripts
• Many improvements to the manpage and the html documentation
• Improved support for pre- and post- super- and subscripts provided by Robert Dodier
• wxWidget's integrated help browser on some platforms was broken => now the default web browser is used
• Support for importing static and some types of animated gif files
• Animation frames created using draw() now can be popped out interactively
• A option to configure the max amount of gnuplot data to save for this feature
• wxMaxima now no more crashes on FreeBSD
• wxMaxima now tries not to use stderr as stderr on the mac breaks communication with maxima.
• As always: Many additional bugfixes.

All installers found here come without maxima (that can be downloaded from http://maxima.sourceforge.net) and in case of the windows Version without MSVC redistributable 2017 (which should be installed on most Windows systems, anyway).

Version-20.02.4

A bugfix-only release

As a maxima release might be imminent I thought I'd better release the last pre-and-post-sub-and-superscript bugfixes.

As always the installer found here comes without maxima and (in case of the windows installer) without the MSVC redistributable 2017.

Version-20.02.3

A features- only release

Robert Dodier has provided the lisp code that is necessary for supporting pre- and post- super- and subscripts. As the C++ code necessary for this feature is in working order, now, too it is time for a features-only release.

As always the installers that can be found here come without maxima (that can be downloaded from http://maxima.sourceforge.net) and the .exe installer requires MSVC redistributable 2017 to be installed. But it should be already installed on most systems.

As the pre- sub-and-supscripts are an entirely new features I mark the first release that contains them as "pre-release".

Version-20.02.2

A bugfix release:

• Resolved two deadlocks that were introduced in 20.02.1
• Resolved two asserts on MS Windows
• Actually included the promised russian translation update
• Many code cleanups and additional bug fixes
• Another small performance boost
  Ad always the binaries provided here come without maxima (that can be downloaded from http://maxima.sourceforge.net) and the windows installer requires MSVC 2017 Redist to be installed.

Version-20.02.1

• wxMaxima now can use Multi-threading, if a new enough OpenMP is found
• Part of the added performance is only effective if omp.h (often in the
  libomp package) is installed.
• Better scroll wheel support
• A Russian translation update by OlesyaGerasimenko
• It was possible that a part of a fraction wasn't displayed
• Several additional bug fixes
• Cppcheck code analysis now is only run if explicitly enabled
• The minimum cmake version now is 3.7

As always the downloads here come without a maxima (that has to be downloaded from http://maxima.sourceforge.net separately) and the .exe installer in order to run requires the ubiquitous msvc redistributable package.

Version-20.02.0

• The MacOs build should now generate working .dmg installers
• Another small tutorial
• Symbols sidebar: Correctly remember additional symbols
• Unicode chars can now be input using the alt+x method
• A unicode sidebar that isn't shown by default as it starts up slow
• Resolved an assert shown by some systems on startup
• Many corrections to the display routines

As always the MS Windows release found here requires MSVC Redistributable and Maxima while the .dmg for MacOs requires a Maxima in order to run.

Version-20.01.3

Another bugfix release.

 * Language selection now works even on system with missing language support
 * Resolved a copy-and-paste regression
 * A russian translation update by OlesyaGerasimenko
 * German translation updates
 * Improved stability of the communication with maxima
 * Preparation for maxima's pre-sub-and supscript feature
 * Corrected a few visual glitches of the worksheet
 * More tutorials describing a few of maxima's features

Version-20.01.2

• Corrected html export of the lowest sectioning unit
• Sometimes text after fractions wasn't displayed
• Copy-and-paste should now work in more cases
• Selecting text within fractions should now work again
• Corrected a few display glitches of the worksheet
• wxMaxima now comes with five example files
• More and better-working mouse-over tooltips

As always the .dmg version of wxMaxima requires maxima to be installed and the .exe installer that can be found here requires MSVC Redistributable 2017 and maxima to be installed.
