I assume for a linux 2.x. I would have to ask the Maple people.
The README says linux 2.0.0 or higher with ELF support.
xmaple is a bourne shell script that invokes:
exec maple -x $*
maple in turn is also a borne script that invokes finally:
exec ${MAPLE}/$MAPLE_SYS_BIN/xmaplev4 $IPARAM $PARAM
file xmaplev4:
xmaplev4: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1
brandelf ./xmaplev4
No such file ./xmaplev4.
???
Yes, it uses Motif. Running the binary locally (though
not on the 24 bit depth display) works fine.
