I cannot get the ini file to load packages.  It executes fine and the bottom commands work, but the package does not load.
Is there some special way to load packages in the ini file?

Thanks!

with(LinearAlgebra):
    stoperror(all):
    interface(displayprecision = 4);
    _EnvUseHeavisideAsUnitStep := true;  
    Digits := 10;
    printf("Standard Packages Loaded\n");

It hangs are v(x) := for some reason.

NULL;

q := x -> v1*Dirac(x - a1) + v2*Dirac(x - a2) + v3*Dirac(x - a3);
NULL;

V := x -> -int(q(x), x = 0 .. x) + Ra + Rb*Dirac(x - L);
proc (x) options operator, arrow, function_assign; Units:-Simple\

  :-`+`(Units:-Simple:-`+`(Units:-Simple:-`-`(MTM:-int(q(x), x 

   = 0 .. x)), Ra), Units:-Simple:-`*`(Rb, Dirac(Units:-Simple:-\

I am unable to change the font on the Palette menus or the pop up context boxes.

It is very frustrating, as I can hardly read them.

I am not sure if it is a computer setting or a Maple setting.

Any help would be appreciated

Why won't evalf give me a number.  I have solved for a variable "iDS" higher up in my sheet, and want the approximate value of an element in a matrix.  this element is a function of iDS and no matter what I do, I get the function of iDS!

I really want to use Maple.  I see what it can do, but I often get "stuck" and very frustrated when I can't get it to do what I need it to do.  Sometimes when you are doing assignments, you need a number!
