Hi Robert, 1. Is this a clean, from-source build of sage-2.9.3?
Yes, i tried it out on two different systems now, Athlon XP, and Core Duo, both running on Debian Etch, and both show the same behaviour 2. What is the output of /usr/bin/env for you? Mine (Intel OS X > 10.5.1) doesn't mention sage at all, although mysteriously things are > working for me. the SAGE_ROOT directory is included in my path, i even defined a global variable with this name, i.e. SAGE_ROOT. > #!/usr/bin/env sage -python > > import sys > > For me, I get > $ ./BMV.sage > $ you response encouraged me to try out some more things, and if i change the first line to #!/usr/bin/env sage-python instead of #!/usr/bin/env sage -python (note that there is no space anymore) things work as excepted (at least import sys and print "Hello World"), seems like my /usr/bin/env does not like the space between (#!/usr/bin/env "sage -python" does not work either) but however, using #!/path/to/sage_root/sage-python import sys still does not work and shows the same strange "mouse behaviour" as described in my original posting, on both systems!! no idea why the second one does not work on my systems!! However, when I run the sage itself, it looks like it's pointing at > some weird version: > $ /usr/bin/env sage > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > | SAGE Version 2.9.2, Release Date: 2008-01-05 | > | Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. | > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Loading SAGE library. Current Mercurial branch is: demo $/usr/bin/env sage brings me to the sage prompt as expected Hopefully this helps, although I have a feeling this thread isn't > over... Anyway, at least i found a partial solution to carry on with, but it seems as there are still some things to clarify, especially the mouse thing concerning the import sys Thank you very much, Georg --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@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-support URLs: http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage/ and http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
