imaxima.el

Imaxima.el provides support for interacting with the computer algebra system Maxima in an Emacs buffer. Imaxima processes the output from Maxima with TeX and inserts the resulting image in the buffer. Imaxima.el is Free Software released under the GPL.

The command imaxima provides a simple comint derived CLI mode. The command imaxima-latex prepares a LaTeX version of the Maxima buffer. Imaxima can also be hooked in to the Emacs mode included with Maxima, which provides more key bindings and other conveniences.

A screen shot probably explains better what it's all about. You can also read the imaxima manual on-line or as PDF.
