Configuration

You can modify the configuration of the software using the 3 red buttons near the status line, or from the menu Edit->Preferences. The graph configuration screen has been presented in section 8.3, the cas configuration screen looks like
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{xcas6en}
and the general configuration screen looks like
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{xcas7en}

There are also commands to change the configurations, like
epsilon:=1e-10

The current session configuration can be saved using the File menu. It will be used for the next session. The configuration is saved in the file ~/.xcasrc (or xcas.rc under Windows), it can be edited with any text editor.
