Probably in the sense of "not having to look in the tutorial for 'Tricks' instead of having a nice place in the reference manual. At least the section about the command line should point out that this stuff is in the tutorial - currently that message is only at the top of the page. Yes, we are all very impatient and don't actually read everything :( By the way, I'm getting a lot of 404s when I go to sagemath.org/doc/reference pages, e.g. http://sagemath.org/doc/reference/sage/misc/trace.html -- 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
