Yes, opening a DOS windows on Windows 98SE, and
set AXIOM=c:\Progra~1\Axiom\mnt\windows
and then start
axiomsys
then Axiom runs without the error message.
But )summary and )copyright still give an error message:
Bad command or file name
which presumably refers to 'cat'.
Continue with
)sys tm_axiom
or start a new DOS windows and
tm_axiom
produces Xverbatim:Xchannel:promptXXlatex:\red$\rightarrow$\ XXXverbatim:
where X stands for some graphic character (not all the same).
Under XP SP2 DOS window,
tm_axiom
simply returns to command prompt.
