Comment:
If you're a GAP3 user interested in trying the new interface, then you can
follow the instructions below to patch your version of Sage. These
instructions are just a summary of the procedure described at:
[http://www.sagemath.org/doc/developer/walk_through.html#reviewing-a-patch].
(Alternatively, your can just install all the sage-combinat patches using
the command {{{"sage -combinat install"}}}, which includes the GAP3
interface patch.)
1. First, create a branch of your Sage library (you can later switch
between the main branch and the new gap3 branch with the commands {{{"sage
-b main"}}} and {{{"sage -b gap3"}}}):
{{{
sage -clone gap3
}}}
2. Next, start Sage and run one of the following commands, depending on
the version of Sage you have installed.
* For sage-4.3.2:
{{{
sage: hg_sage.apply("http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/raw-
attachment/ticket/8380/gap3_interface_v4.3.2.patch")
}}}
* For sage-4.3.3:
{{{
sage: hg_sage.apply("http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/raw-
attachment/ticket/8380/gap3_interface_v4.3.3.patch")
}}}
3. Finally, exist Sage and run the following command.
{{{
sage -br
}}}
You should be up and running now.
I've also generated the documentation and posted it as a PDF file. You can
find it in the "Attachments" section.
