You're right, there's a mistake in our launch script. I hope to get this
fixed soon. You should temporarily be able to get around the problem by
launching Maple this way:
add maple_v9.0
/mit/maple_v9.0/distrib/bin/maple -cw
After the fix, the usual launch command should make it work properly. Thanks
for reporting this!
