Thank you.

I try also with sbcl on Debian and Maxima has been compiled with success, but 
when I write some mathematical equations and press enter, then I got very 
strange output, e.g.:

e: x^2+3*x-4;

I got:

              2 
     x + 3 x - 4 

With such output is impossible to work efficiently. It should be of course:

      2 
     x + 3 x - 4 

Is here maybe somebody who compiled any of the compiler: ccl, clisp, cmucl, 
ecl, sbcl and then Maxima and it work correctly? Especially in Debian Lenny?

Thank you in advance.
