How to automatically load your INITIALIZATION FILE
If you have packages you want to load, variables you want to
predefine, or other settings you want to customize for all of your
Maple sessions, you can accomplish this with an initialization file.
This is simply a text file consisting of commands as you would type
them at the Maple prompt; name the file ".mapleinit" and save it in
your home directory. When you run Maple, it executes the contents of
~/.mapleinit after it has finished the usual system startup.
What you put in this file depends on what you want to do. For example,
to automatically change the default values for the global variables
"Order", "Digits", and "prompt" you could put:
Order := 10: Digits := 20: interface(prompt=`What now? `):
in your initialization file. (You'll probably want to use colons for
termination, to keep the results of the commands from printing
during initialization.)
