Just curious. > I am not sure about the details, but there is certainly a way to launch a terminal.app. One way might be to set the properties by "open with" for the sage application, but I am not sure how that could be automated. > Anyway -- my plan is to modify the notebook command, > so that the notebook still opens the web browser > even if it is already running.

Workwise I am also supposed to spend the next 2-3 weeks on similar code for ApCoCoA (just in time for CoCoASchool VII). I am still confident that that kind of application has its use, just today I talked to a math teacher about which CAS he should use in class and I recommended SAGE. He was interested in testing the SAGE Control Center, so that is another motivating factor. The application should prove interesting to all the "mouse pushers" out there, so that covers more than the Mac people :) > william > > Cheers, Michael --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
