Sage is an extremely complicated program involving over 5 million lines of code and multiple running processes and programs that have to be run in a very specific environment. In addition, it is currently not possible to build about half of Sage at all under Microsoft Windows, and estimates range from 2 to 100 years of hard work (which isn't going on, anyways) to change that. -- William > > On Aug 12, 2:46 pm, William Stein <wst...@gmail.com> wrote: >> On Thu, Aug 12, 2010 at 2:41 PM, fitzsnaggle <fitzsnag...@yahoo.com> wrote: >> > I am running Sage on vmware.
