Don't Maple worksheets, by definition, suck more? At least,
that's my impression of anything based on a Java UI (with an
admittedly nice lispy core). The Sage notebook is meant as a
replacement for a Maple-ish UI, and there's always wxMaxima
along with the TeXmacs and emacs frontends to Maxima. I
occasionally use TeXmacs or wxMaxima, but not in any way
resembling a Maple worksheet.
