I couldn't find anything either. It only states # mathguide Version 1.0 -- 2006-04-05 # Copyright 2004-2006 Hartmut Ring which doesn't sound that good. Mailing ring sounds like a good idea. Should I do it? On Nov 13, 2007 12:41 PM, David Joyner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 11/13/07, Fabio

Hello, I have to agree with Martin on this. I see little advantage in shipping a Qt application with Sage, especially since Qt4 static or dynamic adds easily 10 mb compressed. I have also written similar code (also qt 4.2.3 based) that has the added capability to wrap just about any open

To really compete with programs like mathematica or matlab, I think sage needs to be able to have interactive applet-like interfaces (e.g. like mathematica's Manipulate). It seems possible and probably most desirable to do this with the notebook and javascript, but to me at least javascript
