The following external tools are needed to build and/or use Maxima:
1) A supported Lisp implementation. See README-lisps.md.
2) To build Maxima in the standard manner, Bourne shell and make are
required. See INSTALL.
3) Maxima can also be built using nothing except Lisp. See
INSTALL.lisp.
4) Plotting uses gnuplot, <http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net>, by
default. Plotting can also be done with Maxima's xmaxima
application.
5) xmaxima requires Tcl/Tk, preferably version 8.5 or later.
xmaxima is both one possible interface to Maxima and a plotting
program. As a graphical interface it is not required but as a
plotting program it is required by some commands (plotdf, ploteq
and scene).
6) drawdf requires Vtk and its bindings for Tcl/Tk.
7) The scene command requires python-vtk
8) Building Maxima from GIT additionally requires the GNU autotools.
