Comment:
rebased patch to sage-5.1beta2.
There is however a very weird problem with mathjax, both 1.0 and 2.0
branches. The math is not rendered as long as the sagenb directory is
under `DOT_SAGE`. To reproduce, try the steps below. Use any branch
(mathjax-1 or mathjax-2) for instance jasongrout/mathjax (mathjax-1) in
github.
1. `mkdir /tmp/a`
2. `DOT_SAGE=/tmp/a sage -n`.
3. First, note that the above command launches the nb in port 8000 instead
of 8080. But if we use some other command such as the one below, then it
does open in port 8080.
{{{
sage -n directory=/tmp/a.sagenb
}}}
4. Open a new worksheet, and try to print latex, for instance run the
command `view('?')`. You will get a js error popup saying (in Opera
12.00RC, and Opera-11.64)
{{{
SyntaxError: at index 0 in "\newcommand{\Bold}[1]{\mathbf{#1}}?": invalid
character escape sequence
}}}
In firefox-10.0.4 I simply get the error: `SyntaxError: illegal
character`. This error is not present if I run sage instead as `sage -n
directory=/tmp/a.sagenb`, and the mathjax output is all good.
