Installing a Maple Icon and Menu Item
Maple Icon
You can arrange to have a Maple icon appear on menu above the text
editor icon on the Front Panel. Clicking on this icon will then create
a Maple window.
Also, you can arrange so that double clicking on a Maple worksheet
(a *.mws file) in a file manager window will create a Maple
window running the worksheet.
Danger: If you have already made personal customizations to your
window manager, do not use the following commands, since they might destroy
your customizations.
To do this, issue the following commands in a terminal window:
-
cp ~mat331/.dt/icons/Maple ~/.dt/icons
-
cp ~mat331/.dt/types/Maple.dt ~/.dt/types
-
cp ~mat331/.dt/types/fp_dynamic/Maple1.fp ~/.dt/types/fp_dynamic
Hint: The easiest was to make sure that the commands are typed correctly
is to copy each command from the Netscape window and paste it into
the terminal window.
Maple Menu Item
You can modify the Workspace Menu (which displays when you click the right
mouse button with the pointer in the workspace background) to contain
a Maple item within the Programs submenu.
Danger: If you have already made personal customizations to your
window manager, do not use the following commands, since they might destroy
your customizations.
To do this, issue the following commands in a terminal
window:
-
cp -r ~mat331/.dt/wsmenu ~/.dt
-
cp ~mat331/.dt/dtwmrc ~/.dt
-
cp ~mat331/.dt/wsmenu.dtwmrc ~/.dt
Important
After you issue the commands above, you should log out and log back in
so that the changes take effect.
