Hi all,
Is it just me, or is magma(K) broken for number fields K?
The following example is in number_field.py (Sage 4.6.2):
===
sage: R. = QQ[]
sage: K. = NumberField(t^2 + 1)
sage: K._magma_init_(magma)# optional - magma
'SageCreateWithNames(N
In magma, I do this:

Finite field of size 2

I can't reproduce this with the interface in sage:
sage: F = magma('FiniteField(2);')
sage: magma(F.name())
_sage_[17] := _sage_[12];
sage: magma('%s;'%F.name())
sage: magma.eval(
