starting xmaple with a file included

What I want to do is set up a command that will launch maple in the xmaple
interface (on an rs/6000 - but should be the same for all X boxes) with a
file containing some collection of commands included.

You can do this with non-x maple by:

maple < foo.bar

to load in the file foo.bar.  But, it doesn't work with xmaple.  I want to be
able to do this so my calculus students can avoid entering some of the data
I want them to work with.  I also don't want to have them fight with including
a file from my directories, with a long pathname.

Any ideas?
