This clears the confusion up, though not the OP's question. Can someone help kuhn? I think that the problem is twofold.
* It's not easy to use things from the Windows filesystem in the VM Sage * It's possible to use worksheets that rely on external .sage files, but which aren't in the DATA folder?

Dear kcrisman Sorry...This cryptic How? was in fact in relation to a previously sent message. The complete question is now: I saved from the web page of A. Raichev http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~raichev/research.html, on my Windows 7 laptop a .sws file, which calls programs written in a .sage file. I coudn't use them through the wmware machine on my Windows 7 laptop, since I don't know how to navigate between the virtual machine and the laptop. I have then used your suggestion "Dear Oscar, These can simply be uploaded to a Sage account. Assuming you have created one on sagenb.org or on your local machine, log in to your account and click on "Upload" near the upper left corner. Uploading a .sws file should work okay then. " At sagenb.org I managed to upload the .sws file, but the .sage file got the error "There was an error uploading the worksheet. It could be an old unsupported format or worse. If you desperately need its contents contact the sage-support group and post a link to your worksheet..." I hope the question is clearer now... -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
