Hello.

The "byte-range locked" text in the console window is an innocuous AFS
message, not a Maple error (see /mit/maple/README.athena).  I'm not
seeing any general problems with Maple Vr4 (also on a Sun running
Athena 8.1.15), but if you can provide a detailed account of what
commands you were using when the errors occurred, we'd be happy to
investigate further.

If you need general Maple help, please use OLC.
