No, I mean something that is closer to doing math on a notebook, the
only thing that shows up is the work. With the notebook it is a linear
progression (up and down) of entries of code, followed by output. I want
to create something that gives the user the ability to make entries
(pardon the lame terminology) side-to-side as well as up-and-down. The
idea is that python code is hidden behind beautiful LaTeX and the user
can choose to completely ignore looking at the actual code, but also
gives the user the ability to do more serious stuff in python. I am
thinking of something that would basically be a GUI for SageTeX.
It might sound lame to power users, but sometimes I just want to work on
math, not computer code, like I did in high school. I want the material
I am working on be immediately presentable. If a GUI for SageTeX had
buttons and other GUI items to insert both LaTeX and sage into text
file, then that text file is immediately rendered by LaTeX and sage, the
result would be a nice worksheet that looks like a page out of a
notebook, but has the power of sage.
I wouldn't call myself very good at programming, but this is something I
want to do and I am trying to learn all I need to do this. It might take
years, but I want to make this, hopefully this is something that is
interesting to others as well.

There once was a plugin for Sage that Mike Hansen wrote that let you do
Sage computations. I don't know if the plugin still works.
Thanks,
