I have put some candidate code up on the sage-trac site. I had some funny errors trying to upload a patch for the calculus all.py, so I gave up. It just needs a line like
from desolvers import desolve, desolve_laplacian, desolve_system I got somewhat hung up on thinking about how to change these functions so that they give better output - easier to read at least, but I have shelved that for now. I want to focus on rewriting the PHCpack interface, and then I plan on returning to desolvers and the plot_vector_field command. All I did for now was get the tests to pass.
