Re: [sage-support] Re: Calling Sage on Windows from external scripts
We are actually removing Cygwin support in Sage, so yes, going forward it will
be WSL only.

Re: [sage-support] Re: Calling Sage on Windows from external scripts
Thanks David.
It sounds like that will require some changes in PreTeXt itself.
I was experimenting because I got a new Windows computer at work, to know
how well PreTeXt is currently supported on Windows.
I think the answer might be that everything works locally, as long as your
book doesn't have Sage graphics.
If it does, PreTeXt needs to be installed inside WSL rather than locally.
Then one can follow instructions to connect vscode with the WSL.
I had also tried using the older 9.3 Windows installer, but I couldn't get
that to work either, and if Sage will be WSL only moving forward, it is
probably not worth the effort to figure it out.

[sage-support] Re: Calling Sage on Windows from external scripts
If you have Python script running locally on Windows, you could call the
sage script by doing something like:
import os
os.system('wsl sage your-sage-script.sage')
See this page:
