Justin (cc: sage-devel),
There are now a lot of people using Sage on OSX who don't know
(much) about the command line, but who are maple/mathematica
users. When they try:
sage: mathematica('2+2')
they get a big error message about creating a "math" script, etc.,
and similarly for Maple.
It seems to me that instead of that big error, we could *automatically*
track down Maple/Mathematica on their system and
create the script and put it in SAGE_ROOT/local/bin/.
Thoughts?
It seems like OSX mojo is relevant to this problem.
