Hi Offray,
Thanks for the reply. I think we pretty much in agreement on most all
of this.

Yes, I've seen students resist, but then become proponents, especially
with Beamer versus Powerpoint. ;-)
Also, I agree that PlasTeX's statement about splitting the parser and
the renderer is a very good idea and suggests certain possibilities.
But it also appears that TeXmacs has taken a similar approach. It
seems that their structured "source tree" creates similar
possibilities and they already have the ability to incorporate Sage
sessions into that tree.
Here's everything I think I can tell you about using tex4ht to convert
tex to sws.
Suppose latex source is named A.tex
Most direct:
1. htlatex A.tex "xhtml,jsmath,info" " -cmozhtf"
2. In Sage notebook:
(a) New Worksheet
(b) Edit button
(c) Keep first two lines
(c) Then paste in A.css (part of the htlatex output), wrapped in
<style>,</style> tags
(d) Then paste in A.html (more of the htlatex output)
(e) Save Changes
More involved:
1. Grab the quick-and-dirty files:
http://buzzard.ups.edu/sage/tex4ht-sage.cfg
http://buzzard.ups.edu/sage/parse-tex4ht
2. htlatex A.tex "tex4ht-sage.cfg" " -cmozhtf"
3. Run python script: parse-tex4ht A.html A.css A.presage
4. Cut/paste A.presage into blank Edit box for new worksheet
The latter process will take a \begin{sageverbatim}\end{sageverbatim}
environment in the Latex source and eventually convert it to a Sage
cell in the worksheet. (There is no such environment - this is just a
hack to mark off Sage code in the latex source.) My goal in life is
to make (3) obsolete and streamline the rest.
