Maple Input
You can export a Maple document as Maple input so that it can be loaded
using the Maple Command-line version.
Important:When exporting a document as Maple input for use in Command-
line Maple, your document must contain explicit semicolons in 1-D Math
input. If not, the exported .mpl file will not contain semicolons, and Com-
mand-line Maple will generate errors.
Maplet Application
The Export as Maplet facility saves a Maple document as a .maplet file,
so that you can run it using the command-line interface or the
MapletViewer. The MapletViewer is an executable program that can launch
saved Maplet applications. It displays and runs Maplet applications independ-
ently of the Maple Worksheet interface.
Important: When exporting a document as a Maplet Application for use in
Command-line Maple or the MapletViewer, your document must contain
explicit semicolons. If not, the exported .maplet file will not contain semi-
colons, and Command-line Maple and the MapletViewer will generate errors.
For information on using the MapletViewer, see Using Maplets (page 344).
Maple Text
Maple text is marked text that retains the distinction between text, Maple
input, and Maple output. Thus, you can export a document as Maple text,
send the text file by email, and the recipient can import the Maple text into
a Maple session and regenerate the computations in the original document.
Plain Text
Export a Maple document as plain text so that you can open the text file in
another application.
