It should be pretty straightforward to spot the "ce" from that. (xxd is simply a hexdump command for unix. You don't have to do this in the notebook. In a terminal it would work equally well. Leave out the " | head " if you want to see the entire file) -- 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org
