Thank you, Adrian. But I think I gave the full path when I used the command:
attach /media/disk/thesiswork/thesis2009/sage/src/sympy_files/ thesis_sympy_2009.py but it did not worked in notebook mode (but happens to work perfectly in command-line mode, I just tried it) Maybe the way to go, for now, is your suggestion of invoking sage with this -notebook directory option Best, R On Feb 6, 3:52 pm, adrian <nihilalienumcr...@gmail.com> wrote: > You need to give the full path if you are in the notebook. > If you strongly need to not to give the full path you could run the > command > $mkdir (where your files are)/sagenotebook > $sage -notebook directory="Where your files are/sagenotebook" > > The disadvantage is that this will create another server, and you > won't be able to see the worksheets you had in .sage/notebook > > this was the discussion > inhttp://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/browse_thread/thread/3779... > > This kind of behaviour is the reason for the ticket > inhttp://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5169 > > Hope this helps > > -Adrian. > > On Feb 6, 10:40 am, ricardomayerb <ricardomay...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Dear all, > > > I'm trying to attach a python script.
