Resources for programming Mathix and Math-x

Basic
  1. The original paper for the programming project is Towards Mathix / Math-x, a computer algebra language that can create its own operating system, and that is amazingly user-friendly and secure (PDF 2009-08-19). This was written in Mathematica 7 and printed with PrimoPDF. Unfortunately there is no option to save in plain vanilla HTML. That is, saving as HTML causes CSS and MathML subdirectories such that reading size cannot be adjusted, and other drawbacks. The trick used is to save in RTF, then use Word for Windows 97, save in HTML, then run a small program to embed the links, and then edit for a final touch in Netscape 4 Composer. The result is this: original paper with clickable links.
