{\listtext \uc0\u8226 }To test it: run Maxima.app from your Applications folder by double-clicking on it. A Terminal should pop up with a working Maxima program. You can try some simple calculations like '1+1;' or run the test suite by entering 'run_testsuite();'. No unexpected errors should occur.\

{\listtext \uc0\u8226 }Configure wxMaxima by running it from your Applications folder and opening the wxMaxima->Preferences->Maxima settings. Make sure that the 'Maxima program' field points to your \'93maxima.sh\'94 command in your installation of Maxima.app. This is most typically

{\listtext \uc0\u8226 }If the 'Use jsMath fonts' checkbox is grayed out even though you've installed the fonts, you can try restarting your computer. jsMath fonts are used for nicer (TeX-like) integral signs, summation signs and other symbols.\
{\listtext \uc0\u8226 }If wxMaxima found Maxima.app, then you should be able to run calculations (enter '1+1' and press shit-enter). Plotting requires GNUPLOT.\

\ls5\ilvl0\cf0 {\listtext \uc0\u8226 }Maxima prefers \'93pngcairo\'94 as the terminal type for gnuplot, which makes much better plots than plain \'93png\'94. If plotting in wxMaxima (Plot->Plot2d->\'94sin(x)\'94) fails with an \'93unknown or ambiguous terminal error\'94, then uncheck the \'93use cairo to improve plot quality\'94 option in the Preferences->Options pane.\
