There is not yet a way to specify this in the .pyx file itself, but it has been discussed and would be nice. > All I came across in the docs was adding the > module to the giant sage setup.py and then rebuilding with sage -br. > I'm currently doing this and have every expectation for it to work, > but it seems a bit ungainly, since it has to rebuild all of the > modules. It only needs to rebuild all the modules once (which will be the first time you do sage -br if you downloaded a binary build), after that it will only build the needed ones. Or is it trying to rebuild the entire thing every time? - Robert --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
