KFormula is for drawing expressions and it is good as it is.<br><br>Maybe you want to use kformula in your app, which is something different (as kalgebra does and will do even more).<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/12/26 Dylon Edwards <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:integr8e@gmail.com">integr8e@gmail.com</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Thanks for the welcome! I didn't know about mathGUIde, I'll definitely check into it; wxMaxima isn't really what I'm looking for.<br>
<br>I thought about the KOffice approach, in that they may be interested in changing KFormula into more of a WYSIWYG, MathML-based CAS (since it would allow for both the creation and solution of expressions), which would be awesome for writing math papers; I couldn't decide, however, whether my project would be a better compliment for an office or educational suite, because it really complements both. As you suggested, maybe they would be interested in creating a Maxima flake, or improving their current one, that could be used in both KFormula and my application, and would allow for a symbiotic relationship between the two. They could use it to generate non-interactive formulas to insert in KOffice apps, and I could use it to enhance the user experience of mine; we would both improve it to better our projects. Despite which direction I decide to go, I would like to create a technology that could, and would, be used in any application ... maybe even a mathematical API that would implement various backends, such as the multimedia services Phonon provides. <br>
</blockquote><div>Well, the flake should be made anyway imho, so maybe you could do it first for maxima and then abstract it.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>Anyway, I have a lot to learn and think about before I can bring my application to fruition, but I will definitely be working on it. Would any of you be interested in a WYSIWYG, MathML-based CAS (frontend)?</blockquote>
<div> </div><div>Not really, but will follow your steps, maybe we could create a kalgebra backend. it would be pretty straightforward since kalgebra already does MathML. <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
