sage shell connected to notebook kernel?

[Fred Gruber]

I'm running a sage notebook. Is it possible to open a shell session of sage that connects to the same kernel running on the notebook in order to access the same variables?

I know it is possible in ipython (http://ipython.org/ipython-doc/rel-1.1.0/interactive/notebook.html)  so I was wondering if it is possible in sage as well.

thanks

It's not possible in Sage, unfortunately.

I'm sure you already know, but to use Sage in IPython, you would do this:

%load_ext sage.misc.sage_extension

For other readers, you can connect via the terminal in ipython by doing

ipython console --existing f0d951ae-9f86-4159-a427-afd9d9e72bbf

where the uuid is that of the ipython session...

But if I run sage in ipython would I be able to use the interact?

No.

They do have their own approach to something like interact, which
maybe is only in 2.0 (?). I have the impression that theirs is
completely and totally incompatible with ours, as much as is humanly
possibly, but solves the same sort of problem.
