Dear Mr. Woollett,
We use your qdraw.mac macro in our math class.
And we found out, that it works only on windows,
 but not on the mac and linux users´notebooks.
Dous qdraw.mac in principal work on these OSs?
Thans a lot

Hi David,
The qdraw.mac package (ch. 5, maxima by example)
is simply a convenient interface to draw2d, since qdraw's
arguments are just rearranged in a way that draw2d will
recognise.

Hence, if you get draw2d to work on its own
with your hardware/software combination, you
should have no problem with qdraw working
as well.

If you continue to have problems, perhaps you
can ask the mailing list experts who use the same
setup that you use to compare notes with you.

Best Wishes,
