This seems pretty basic, but I am having issues with deleting
worksheets and then not having them pop up again.

Yes, I could read a few hundred pages of manuals, but how hard should
this be. I followed the instructions for installing sage on Mac OS X
(10.4.11) and that works. So I do:

% ./sage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| SAGE Version 3.1.1, Release Date: 2008-08-17                       |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information.        |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sage: notebook()
The notebook files are stored in: /Users/ray/.sage//sage_notebook
**************************************************

*                                                *
**************************************************

So, I click on the checkbox next to one of the worksheets and hit the
Delete button. I click on the "Log out" link. Now, I see this on
sage's console:

2008-09-25 15:06:15-0700 [-] Log opened.

I never get back to a prompt? How do I? The only way I have found is
to type a ^C.

Hm. Looks as though it saved. I re-start sage and there it is. The
worksheet I thought I deleted is back.

So, I see a "Delete" button, a "Save" button, a "Save & Quit" button.
I have tried all of these. No effect. Is there a "Delete Really"
button? Where is it? I tried to get back to the "sage:" prompt with a
^D. What else should I try? ^X-elbow-Z? What is the magic word for
getting it to do this rather obvious thing?

If someone can explain it, I can find a rather obvious place to put
this info in the documentation. I found several obvious places, and no
documentation. Thanks.
