Comment(by rossk):
First, thanks for saving me all that work (and the explanation :-)
1) I installed scilab 5.2.0 (and I modified my path to include its binary
path) and in running it I tried "scilab -nogui" and guess what... (it
found scilab on the path and) NO ERROR!
2) Fired up the notebook, selected "scilab (optional)" then tried "1+1"
and got...
...an error :-(
But something was different, my spider-sense was tingling... ;-)
I had forgot to export the new path (to scilab) in the terminal I was
running Sage in.
I did that and... voila!
The following worked
{{{
# "scilab (optional)" selected from dropdown
1+1
------
eye(3,3)
------
# "sage" selected
%scilab
1+1
------
scilab('eye(3,3)')
------
% scilab
1+1
------
# only format that didnt work under "sage" dropdown was...
eval.scilab('1+1')
Traceback (click to the left of this block for traceback)
...
AttributeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object has no attribute
'scilab'
Traceback (most recent call last):

}}}
Now pls let me know what other checks I need to do and how to do some doc
tests (all doc test might wait till I get a sage account soon)
