Indeed, it was a oneliner: diff -r b0aa7ef45b3c sage/server/notebook/user_conf.py --- a/sage/server/notebook/user_conf.py Mon Jan 05 23:03:45 2009 -0800 +++ b/sage/server/notebook/user_conf.py Wed Feb 11 08:58:59 2009 -0800 @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ import conf defaults = {'max_history_length':500, - 'default_system':'sage', + 'default_system':'python', 'autosave_interval':3*60, # (in seconds) 'default_pretty_print': False } Is there some better way, so that I don't have to modify Sage sources? It looks like some user configuration, but I haven't yet figured out how to use it the way it is intended. Also I want to control what is imported and what is not (in the empty worksheet), looking into it now.
