> Maybe they contain the revision history? That could make them big.
Was just downloading one now and basically it just does cd into the appropriate directory and then tar -jcf "name_of_file_downloaded" "number_of_that_worksheet" which means it is bzipping EVERYTHING, including all the snapshots and images (including ones in deleted cells, see #5177) into one gargantuan mess. This seems inefficient. Does anyone have any ideas about what a better solution could be? I assume that some people (maybe not me) want to keep various large computed objects (pickles? is that what they're called) in their worksheets, so just having a text version might not work. (Though to be honest that should be an option too, if it isn't already.) But might there be ways to trim the fat from these files for worksheets, like 95% of mine, that really don't need a million snapshots etc.? I would be willing to at least attempt to implement any ideas on this which lie within my admittedly tiny scripting talents. - kcrisman --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
