Yes, you could open a pipe with popen and use Sage directly as if from the terminal (though the startup time would hit you), or you could write an RPC client in Sage (though RPC if often, though not always, implemented on top of HTTP) or essentially any other protocol both PHP and Python understand. Almost certainly http://wiki.sagemath.org/simple_server (which is actually demos PHP + Sage) is your easiest bet. Is there a specific reason you want to avoid HTTP? - Robert --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
