I'm using the VMWare Player v2.5.2 and Sage 3.4.1 on a LAN-connected laptop with no firewall and am confused about how to reach the sage command line.
If I run the VMWare Player from Windows, and use it to open sage_vmx I'm offered a menu of 4 choices: notebook, off, manage, sage (which says it's the option to reach the command, as I desire). If I type "sage" (without using the "notebook" options first) lots of text scrolls by, I see a brief message about the sage version and typing notebook() to get a GUI, but then I'm returned to the 4 option menu with a login prompt. Attempts to type mathematical expressions are interpreted as attempts to login. If I choose the "notebook" menu option (which returns me to the 4 option menu again) before typing "sage", I get the same effect. So how should I reach the command line please or does any of this signify a prob lem with my set up? many thanks Kevin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
