Hi, all,

This deals with the use of SageTeX on Mac OS X/TeXShop, so if that's not of 
interest, feel free to delete and move on.

I just got finished a long detour into using SageTeX with TeXShop on Mac OS X, 
and have a question and a couple of comments.

It's been mentioned here that SageTeX changed, between the Sage 4.x and Sage 
5.x, the naming of the intermediate sage files produced during typesetting.

The impact of this for the Mac world is that the TeXShop engine that is 
provided for SageTeX has to change.

So the question is: is this change necessary?  Is it the first of many?  I did 
a quick check of Trac and didn't see anything pertaining to this change 
(although my facility with the Trac search scheme is not always that 
productive).

That's more than one question, so I should add one more to round up to an even 
three:
Is it sufficient to do something like this in the TeXShop's sage engine:
   XXX=`sage -version`
   if "first character" is < 5
   then
      use old naming convention
   else
      use new naming convention
   fi
?

Thanks!
