Opening a .sws file

[Oscar Castillo-Felisola]

Sorry Beezer,
I do not know how to manage the files .sws that you have suggested to
look at.

Dear Oscar,

These can simply be uploaded to a Sage account. Assuming you have
created one on sagenb.org or on your local machine, log in to your
account and click on "Upload" near the upper left corner. Uploading
a .sws file should work okay then. I agree it is not intuitive.

You don't even have to download the file. You can just click the
"Upload" link, and then paste the URL to the .sws file into the box.
Sage will automatically download the file and put it in your list of
worksheets.

And to amplify what Jason and Karl have said, if you are trying to
look at a worksheet that is an attachment on the wiki, you need to
first click the link, and then you'll get a page with a prominent blue
box saying "Download." Do whatever you need to do to copy that link
(like a right-click and a "Copy Link Location" in Firefox).

It would be great for those of us who have installed Sage to be able
to double click on these files and have sage open them in the
notebook.

Supoorting a command on the likes of

sage -notebook /path/to/worksheet.sws

would be a very good step in this direction

thanks!

This is a good enough idea that I'm forwarding it to sage-devel (maybe
it even already works?). In principle this could also be done with
the current (optional) Mac app, but would require some nontrivial work
with app bundle preferences and this sort of command.

Thx.

Dear Yujia,

I am not sure what sage.exe you are referring to, but anything Sage
with an .exe would not work. The way to currently use Sage on Windows
is at http://www.sagemath.org/mirror/win/README.txt . You shouldn't
have to install Linux in Virtualbox, just to download Virtualbox for
your OS, then import the Sage virtual appliance.

Hope this helps!

I wrote this wiki about using sagemath live with a ubuntu cd.
You can download it or you get it per mail for free

http://wiki.sagemath.org/SagemathLive

on this side you get the information about the images I provide.
the actual ubuntu version ist karmic.
