I do not have windows, but maybe declaring the types helps:
str2lst(str: String): List Integer==map(x +-> ord(x)-65,members(str))
apart from that:
* which version of axiom are you using (if you do not know, maybe the banner at
startup contains some information) ?
* maybe issueing
)set break break
before invoking str2lst, and
:bt
works on windows, too? Then one of the gurus might be able to help?
good luck,
