Hi Ursula, This is not currently supported by Sage in an easy way. Since you are interested (and I am too now), I will file a ticket for an enhancement, but I don't have time to work on it right away.
I can give you an example of how to do it in a crude way: r.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(QQ,2) fg = r.ideal([x^2-y,y^4-x]).groebner_fan() from subprocess import * gfan_processes = Popen(['gfan','_weightvector','-m'],stdin = PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE) ans, err = gfan_processes.communicate(input = fg.gfan()) print ans will return { (5,1), (3,1), (1,3)} which I presume are the weight vectors corresponding to the three reduced Groebner bases in this example.
