Hello, SAGE is big, time is limited. Python is easy, but not all students know it and like writing code. I'd like SAGE to have what wxMaxima is for Maxima.
That is main actions can be achieved by clicking buttons instead of writing code. Html is very flexible to invent all kinds of UI, but I don't know how this would fit into notebook framework For example when user selects the syntax (maxima/r/whatever), it can at once propose the menus (there could be different collections of menus even for the same syntax, which could be loaded with notebook command) I think this could become similar to "macros" (at least in M$ office I know macro can be called with custom button). I think this would play very well with interactive input idea http://groups.google.com/group/sage-edu/browse_thread/thread/1e89fc0a71d2db6e http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/1e89fc0a71d2db6e I understand Ted Kosan went for http://mathrider.org with similar intention but back to sage notebook -- for now, I can imagine such macros could generate notebook code put it in a cell and run it, but for the math user it might be more convenient not to see the code by default (with option to look at it when needed) I am curious when in the roadmap this could happen? and how good in general nb framework is for this, what should be changed/added? -- Jurgis Pralgauskis jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; skype: dz0rdzas; Don't worry, be happy and make things better ;) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
