packagefile

Option variable

packagefile

Description

Default value: false

Package designers who use save or translate to create packages (files) for others to use may want to set packagefile: true to prevent information from being added to Maxima's information-lists (e.g. values, functions) except where necessary when the file is loaded in. In this way, the contents of the package will not get in the user's way when he adds his own data. Note that this will not solve the problem of possible name conflicts. Also note that the flag simply affects what is output to the package file. Setting the flag to true is also useful for creating Maxima init files.
