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".
