Release notes 

A new shell command line operation feature was added, and many problems were fixed.
For example, "mathomatic -eq 2+3" will result in the output "answer = 5".

Package maintainers now can use the DESTDIR variable and should delete any DESTDIR patches.

Changelog 

View the full changelog

All makefiles were improved. Library test/example program is renamed to "testmain".

Package maintainers please take note: support for the DESTDIR environment variable was
added to the makefiles; for proper operation when packaging version 15.2.1 or higher,
please remove any patches for missing DESTDIR support.
m4 Mathomatic should work now when included in the Mathomatic package (make m4install).
Thank you for packaging Mathomatic! If I did anything wrong, please let me know.

8/26/10 - Added the -e option, which processes mathematical expressions and Mathomatic commands
          instead of input files on the shell command line. For example, entering
          "mathomatic -eq 2+3" gives "answer = 5". This functionality has been requested
          many times by Mathomatic command line users.
          Another example to try that works is: mathomatic -e y=1/x "solve verify x"

8/30/10 - Improved results of solving for zero. Results should have reduced integer coefficients,
          by factoring out the GCD of rational coefficients.

8/31/10 - Removed a readline error message that displayed for no reason on some Macs, due to
          improper functioning of readline's write_history() function.
          Readline and history may work better now, due to a change in the initialization order.
