That's a different issue. If Sage was written entirely in assembly code, but run fine on Windows, then Windows uses would be happy. There are two separate issues 1) The interface language 2) What the source code is written in. In the case of Sage, the interface is python. The source code is written in at least all of these: * Assembly code * Bash shell scripts * C * C++ * Fortran * GNU variant of C * GNU variant of C++ * Lisp * Maxima * Python etc. Dave -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
