Bug Description
Binary package hint: wxmaxima
When I try to work with Unicode chars. for example when I input ESC + delta + ESC the delta will be replaced with δ. However when I just try to work with this, wxMaxima gets stuck. It seems that wxMaxima is unicode capable, but the underlying maxima not.
This bug is also described in detail here.

I was told by maxima developers (when reporting this bug to them) that this is a problem in GCL (Gnu Common Lisp), which is not unicode-compatible. It would be very nice to have support for this feature, though.
