Thanks to this wonderful suggestion the new Maxima interface
on MathAction is looking pretty good! :)

I modified the texmacs-maxima-5.9.2.lisp code a little to emit
XML-style tags instead of the TeXmacs weird control characters.
The resulting protocol is much easier to handle in Python.
So thanks to Bob and the original authors: James Amundson and
A.G. Grozin, this was a lot easier to do than I thought. :)
Please give this a try and report any problems via IssueTracker.

Bill Page.
