Is it possible to turn on typeset mode in the single cell server?


I guess one can use "show" in some cases...
but I don't think this is configurable by end users, though perhaps it wouldn't be very hard - ?

And how would it look like? Putting something like "%typeset" on the top is not going to be better than "show(...)" on the last line.

There can be an argument made for always using rich representation perhaps (and those who dislike it can use "print(...)" explicitly). Thoughts?

It could be if one is outputting multiple things, maybe?  Maybe the original poster (David, sorry for the slowness of this conversation) could give us some potential use cases to help refine this idea.

I'd be open to that, but then again I don't really care.    But if a lot of people would find it useful... or maybe it could be another "engine" like R or Singular.

I have some sage cells in a couple of online textbooks, and mostly just wanted to unclutter the line for students. Using "show" is OK, I was just hoping that like sagenb and the cloud I could make it the default.

In sagenb and cloud you put "typeset on" command in one "cell" and the
output of the last command of all cells is typeset rather than
printed. But in SageMathCloud originally called Single Cell Server
there are no other cells to affect (well, there are technically linked
cells but it is not very clear to the user what is linked and what is
not).
