Strange, but I installed the debian etch package of texmacs. And under

/usr/share/texmacs/TeXmacs/plugins/axiom/progs/init-axiom.scm

it says

(define (axiom-initialize)
  (import-from (utils plugins plugin-convert))
  (lazy-input-converter (axiom-input) axiom))

(plugin-configure axiom
  (:require (url-exists-in-path? "/usr/bin/axiom"))
  (:initialize (axiom-initialize))
  (:launch "tm_axiom")
  (:session "Axiom"))

So I would assume that texmacs calls the right thing.

Unfortunately, I've compiled my own Axiom Gold (patch--50) and I don't 
know exactly how to call that Axiom.

Currently, I've created ~/.TeXmacs/plugins/axiom/progs/init-axiom.scm 
and modified the path to point to my Axiom. An Axiom session starts, but 
the first thing I get is

  Unexpected End5

(everythinng in read except a black 5).

And there is an "axiom]" prompt. Unfortunately, the cursor then is right 
in the middle of this prompt.

So I believe Axiom Gold does not work together with TeXmacs.
Other experiences? Any cure?
