[sage-devel] rename_worksheet() in main.js -- the 30 character length restriction
The function (unpacked from main.js) below limits the title to 30
characters. Can we instead,
a) Make the limit larger by default, and possibly,
b) let the CSS/JS dynamically limit the size on the page horizontally
by either displaying ellipsis or by wrapping the text within the div
element, or
c) make the default value of 30 an adjustable variable in a
configuration file? (Perhaps there is an existing mechanism I'm not
aware of already.)
function rename_worksheet()
{
var callback=function (new_worksheet_name)
{
var title=$('#worksheet_title'),set_name;
if (new_worksheet_name.length>=30)
{
set_name=new_worksheet_name.slice(0,30)+' ...';
}
else
{
set_name=new_worksheet_name;
}
title.html(set_name);
worksheet_name=new_worksheet_name;
original_title=worksheet_name+' (Sage)';
document.title=original_title;
async_request(worksheet_command('rename'),null,
{
name:new_worksheet_name
}
);
};
modal_prompt(
{
success:function (form,prompt)
{
callback($(':text',form).attr('value'));
}
}
,
{
title:'Rename worksheet',message:'Please enter a name for this
worksheet.','default':worksheet_name,submit:'Rename'
}
);
}
Thanks,
Donald

At the time I downloaded it; the site said it was ok to have a copy for research use but not commercial use. Also only the keyword:core sequences (169 sequences) are really vetted and importantsome of the keyword:nice sequences (6205 excluding intersection with core) are also important. A little bird told me that about 2-5% of entries have errata. Maybe it would be a worthwhile project to create an independent db format, and re-create core sequences working from other texts.

Python's standard library "hashlib" contains both MD5 and SHA1 Message
Digests.
Their advantage over the checksum (CRC) algorithm, is that the output
digest changes dramatically when only 1 input bit changes.

Hi Kwankyu, Thanks for your work. Here are some comments for the current version: 49 os.kill(pid,signal.SIGTERM) 50 time.sleep(.5) 51 if os.path.isfile(pid_file): 52 print "Waiting for the sage server to terminate..." 53 time.sleep(3) 54 if os.path.isfile(pid_file): # assume the server process is malbehaving. 55 print "Killing the errorneous sage server process..." 56 os.kill(pid,signal.SIGKILL) 57 os.remove(pid_file) Line 50 "blocks" (waits syncronously without checking status); also half of a second may not be long enough if all memory was used up and there was excessive paging in/out from the swap file. One alternative method is to check for the existence of the pid file periodically for a longer period (possibly parameterized), and if it is deleted, recheck that the twistd process has indeed exited else send SIGKILL.

Some comments on the script:
1) The stop_server function does not do error checking to ensure that
the pid contained in the pid file actually corresponds to a server
process: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/attachment/ticket/7893/sage-server
30 def stop_server():
31 try:
32 # if sage notebook server is running, "twist.pid" is
created
33 file = open(os.environ['HOME'] + '/.sage/
sage_notebook.sagenb/twistd.pid', 'r')
34 pid = file.readline()
35 file.close()
36 print "Stopping sage server..."
37 os.system('kill -INT ' + pid)
38 except IOError:
39 print "No sage server running."
Given the frequency of reboots for most users, and the cost to the
user of killing a random process, it would be good to error check
against the actual running process name.
2) It would be good to add some code that waits for SIG_TERM to
complete, then optionally sends SIG_KILL. One can't assume SIG_TERM
will be handled correctly by the server, especially if it's in a bad
state.
3) The script should verify the completion of #2, then delete the pid
files.

[sage-devel] server start, server shutdown
I find the following command useful from the terminal: cd sage-4.5.3-linux-64bit-ubuntu_10.04.1_lts-x86_64-Linux/ && nohup ./ sage -n 2>&1 > /dev/null & exit It closes the terminal, but keeps the sage server running. Of course the sagedir should be an env var, or parameterized, or searched for... Is there an inverse command already in existence that does a "killall" on the sage server processes for the current user, (by sending SIG_TERMwaiting, then sending SIG_KILL)? It might be useful to have these shorthands for "up/down" or "start/stop" without the user having to memorize a long command-line. It could be put in script(s). -Don -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
