May be I am missing something. Does typesetting of "diff" somehow depend on typesetting of "integrate"? If I try following in Sage (v3.4) I get "\partial" for function with single variable. So it could be due to maxima-interface of Sage, unless my sage installation is messed up. ------------------------------------------- f(x) = function('f',x) latex(diff(f(x),x)) --- {{{\it \partial}}\over{{\it \partial}\,x}}\,f\left(x\right) ----------------------------------------- Cheers, Golam --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
