FriCAS start options¶
By default FriCAS is started by calling the fricas
script that is
accessible from your $PATH
. You can change with what options the
script is called by changing the corresponding lines at the end of
your installed fricaskernel.py. You find there a few other ways to
start FriCAS, in particular, you can start a terminal that exposes
the FriCAS session that runs behind your Jupyter notebook or you can
start FriCAS without opening the HyperDoc window.
Output to files¶
Note that jFriCAS never directly writes to (most of) the streams in FriCAS. Rather it replaces them by its own streams to collect the output for the Jupyter notebook. That means that the command
)set output algebra foo.txt
sin x + exp x
will not work as expected. The output still appears inside the
Jupyter notebook. No output is written to foo.txt
. See
webspad.lisp to figure out which streams are actually used in
jFriCAS.
