@arieder where did you get that list of keywords and functions of Maxima?

Hi,
they originate from the syntax-highlighting file for maxima used by kate (see https://github.com/KDE/syntax-highlighting/blob/master/data/syntax/maxima.xml) or at least some earlier verision of it.

I discussed with Maxima developers and looks like there is not a standard way to get the symbols (variables/functions/etc) predefined in Maxima.

A developer told in the list to get the set of symbols from manual... :(

I am going to hard code the keywords and verify if it works. Let's see if in the future we will have a better approach using KSyntaxHighlighting (T5382).
