Hello!
  I have encountered some problems trying to upload/download the
relatively large files in the DATA folder of my worksheet.
1. When I want to upload some data files on the server into the DATA
folder, I press "Upload" and wait until the file is uploaded.
Everything goes fine till the moment the file finally gets fully
uploaded. At this moment Notebook redirects me to the page for
_editing_ this file automatically, which I certainly do not want to do
since usually those are just the data files with some experimental or
numerical modelling results (and may be even stored in the binary
format).
2. When my program accomplished some calculations for me and saved the
results into some file in the 'DATA' directory, I want to simply
download that file. I go to "Data..." -> "MyFile.txt" and again
Notebook tries to show me all the contents of that file (which
sometimes can be very long) and even more - I can see the phrase
"Processing Math: 0%" in the bottom left corner in my browser window,
which I understand as a "searching for and processing of the
mathematical expressions in the text", am I right?

  So, in both cases one of my browsers (IceCat) consumes all the
available CPU time and becomes non-responding for a several minutes,
while the other one (Midori) consumes all the available CPU time, all
the available memory, becomes non-responding and segfaults in several
minutes.
  My question is: what are the ways of simple data files manipulation
(upload, download) without viewing, editing and "Processing Math" in
Sage Notebook? If there are none, then maybe it is worth to change the
"Data..." functionality slightly? For example, when the user presses on
the filename in the "Data..." scroll-down list, a page opens where
he/she can choose between "View file", "Download file", "Delete file",
"Rename file", "File size is: .... MB", "File creation time is:
mmddyy, hh:mm:ss" etc.
  What do you think of that?

  Thanks.
    Vladimir
