Maxima 5.32 change log


   Changes not backward compatible:

 * share function graph2d: removed in favor of plot2d


   New items in core:

 * function limit: limits for fresnel_c and fresnel_s
 * function plot2d: adaptive plotting for parametric plots
 * functions round, truncate: distribute over lists and other aggregate types
 * function zn_characteristic_factors: Shanks characteristic factors


   New items in share:

 * new package smath: glue code for SMath Studio (notebook interface)
 * new package logic: some functions for Boolean expressions
 * package lapack: new function zheev (eigenvalues of Hermitian matrix)


   Changes in core:

 * function labels: make 'labels' an ordinary function (not argument-quoting)
 * plotting: more general color specification
 * plotting: rework plot options machinery
 * plotting: introduce some new options


   Other changes:

 * Build and install mgnuplot.exe under windows
