Hello Chris, at the moment I am thinking about a related question and I came up with this suggestions. They are for windows in general and not for IDLE. My preferred suggestion is 3.) . But I didn't try any of them, since I am using linux.
My suggestions are : 1.) inside vmware apt-get emacs + xorg + configure xorg and run everything inside the vm. Not good as it will require Linux-skills and then you can also start with installing some linux distribution (including X) inside a vm and then add sage. 2.) As the others suggested: set up network shares in Windows, mount them in the vm. Edit with a windows-editor and attach via the mounted share. Requires samba and samba setup inside the vm 3.) - install emacs in Windows, - install tramp-mode for emacs (if it did not come with your emacs). This gives a summary: http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/000983.html, instead of / myserver:public_html/foo.html, you should be able to do <ip address of sage-vm>:myfile.sage and the ip-address would be the ip you use to access the notebook. Questions: -Is a ssh server running in the vm? I think I read that there is one running. And you wrote that you access files with putty, so you already have a ssh and you know the ip. -Did you need to configure the virtual linux (e.g. install ssh) or did you change vmware's networking options (NAT, bridge)? The advantage of 3.) would be: only windows-skills are required, no configuration inside the virtual linux, if ssh is running. Perhaps there are editors supporting transparent editing of files via ssh.
