Language and System Changes in Maple 14
Maple 14 includes the following language and system changes.
Help Browser
Eval and rtable
RegularChains option in RootFinding[Isolate]
By setting interface(helpbrowser=standard), it is possible to view documentation through the Standard GUI's help browser launched from any interface. This gives Command-line and Classic users a nicer interface for viewing documentation including hyperlinks, full-text search, and the table of contents. Additionally, help pages that are written using features specific to Maple's Standard interface and that were previously not viewable in Classic and Command-line help will be accessible. This includes some help pages, example worksheets, and Maple Portal pages. For more information on the helpbrowser variable, see interface.
Eval now works on rtable constructions such as Matrix.
Eval(Matrix([[x^2 + y]]), {x=3, y=2}) mod 5;

Users of RootFinding[Isolate] now can choose the method to isolate the real roots of polynomial system. These methods are "RS", which is based on Fabrice Rouillier's RealSolving (RS) C library, and "RC", which is based on the RegularChains package by Marc Moreno Maza et al.
with(RootFinding):
F := [x^2-2, y-1];
F≔x2−2,y−1
Isolate(F, [x,y], method="RS");
x=−1.414213562,y=1.000000000,x=1.414213562,y=1.000000000
Isolate(F, [x,y], method="RC");
x=−1.414213562,y=1.,x=1.414213562,y=1.
