Indeed. CLEF is the problem. Just edit your fricas script.

Of course without clef (and without building FriCAS especially to > support readline) you lose the usual command line editing. But in the master branch is now the -rl option. If you have rlwrap installed on your computer, then "fricas -rl" will choose readline instead of clef and you have full editing features. > I am not sure if the TeXmacs interface already avoids using clef or not.

Sorry, I don't have > TeXmacs installed on this desktop system any more or I would try it. It doesn't use -nosman, but basically it does, because it calls FRICASsys directly. But I am not sure whether that actually means that it doesn't use clef. https://github.com/fricas/fricas/blob/master/src/etc/fricas#L102 Anyway, maybe replacing if [ "$*" = "-texmacs" ] ; then exec "$FRICAS/bin/FRICASsys" -- -eval "$algebra_off" -eval "$markers" -eval "$texmacs_on" fi by if [ "$*" = "-texmacs" ] ; then exec "rlwrap $FRICAS/bin/FRICASsys" -- -eval "$algebra_off" -eval "$markers" -eval "$texmacs_on" fi just works.
