Hi, Given that this [1] is called "Turtle Graphics for Tk" (which is included standard in Python 2.6, 2.7, etc.), it will not work in the Sage notebook remotely. That said, for me with Sage-4.7.3 on OS X turtle graphics *just work* already on the command line. Whether it works or not with a random Sage install will depend on whether or not one has Tk graphics support. Looking over the API from [1], I think it would be really cool to make a version of this that does work in the notebook. It would be a great project for somebody to make something with the same API at [1] that works in the Sage notebook cleanly, using perhaps HTML5 canvas or something. I would try to do this right now (simply because it would be really fun), but I don't have infinite time anymore. I don't know whether I would use (or reuse) any of the code in Python's turtle module or not. [1] http://docs.python.org/library/turtle.html > > Also, can we use VPython in SAGE? > > TIA, > A.
