Since you haven't received a better reply... as soon as my own code
starts to span multiple files, I stop thinking of it as a series of
commands to be fed to the sage interpreter, and instead start thinking
of it as a python program/library.
Globals are always tricky, but in your example I might define a
function
def initialize_globals():
...
in foo.py so that whatever you consider to be the "main program" can
run e.g.
from sage.all import *
from foo import initialize_globals
from baz import compute_stuff
initialize_globals()
result = compute_stuff()
print(result)
Beware that you won't get preparsing this way, but otherwise, this more
or less allows you to write a well-structured python library using all
of the features of sage.

Thanks for the suggestion. A bit of poking around shows that the sage
input
sage: run 'file-name'
will work nicely. (There's no initial '%' sign -- the sage preparser
adds that back on.)
Alas, this is ONLY valid at the top-level ipython/sage REPL. Inside
a 'run-ed' file, the run command doesn't work (it's a syntax error
regardless of whether it's spelled 'run' or '%run').
More generally, suppose I have a bunch of Sage assignments-to-globals
and function definitions in several files, say
foo.sage
bar.sage
baz.sage
what's the idiomatic way for some other piece of Sage source code to
execute the contents of all of those files? What I've been doing is
to create another file (say 'setup.sage') which contains the lines
load('foo.sage')
load('bar.sage')
load('baz.sage')
so that
load('setup.sage')
(either at the interactive Sage prompt or in another source file) loads
all the individual files. This works fine apart from the un-helpful
error messages when (not if, *when*) I have bugs in my code. Is there
a more idiomatic way?

[sage-devel] Python-level error messages don't give the source file name
I've noticed that some (many) Python-level error messages (e.g., syntax
errors) from Sage 9.5.beta8 fail to give the name of the source file
in which the error occured. For example, a few minutes ago I got this
error message from a Sage code I'm working on:

Notice that the traceback entries mentioning Sage internal files all
include the file name and line number, but the traceback errors for my
own code just say 'File ""', with no useful information about
which of my source-code files the error occured in.
I'm not sure how much of this is Python's fault and how much is Sage's,
but the user experience is not good.
To reproduce this problem, create the following 2 files:
% head error*
==> error1.sage <==
load('error2.sage')
print bad_function(2, 3)
==> error2.sage <==
def bad_function(x,y)
"""
Note the missing ':' at the end of the first line of this file.
This will produce a Sage/python syntax error when this file
is loaded.
"""
return x+y
%
and type
load('error1.sage')
at the sage command prompt.
stay safe and COVID-free,
