Wow!  Maxima-on-wasm works even better than I expected.  It was able to factor some large integers reasonably quickly.  It didn't even take very long to load.


'?' and '??' don't work yet, but that was too much to ask for a first try.

Q: Do any of these Maxima's yet run in one's browser as wasm -- e.g., ECL ?

I added a Windows installer now. Included are 3 Lisp versions (SBCL, Clisp and CCL64).


My code signing cert is expired, so it is no longer signed. I added a remark in the Readme-file, how one can "extract" the installer, if one wants something like a 'portable' version.


Sorry for the delay. I saw an issue with Clisp and the help system, tried to bisect it (crosscompiling many installers, that takes time...), but could not reproduce it now. Strange. But most people will probably use SBCL nowadays, anyway.


Best regards, Wolfgang
