Re the interface: You would have to redirect stin, stdout & stderr (and maybe have the sage text application emit some sort of "signal" like done with my computation), and in case you plot something you need to write that to a file locally and read it from the client. There is certainly demand for this kind of application and we could share the load by developing this with CoCoA, Singular, Pari, GAP and so on.

[sage-devel] Re: plotQt.c with Qt 4.3.2 + GUI for pari/gp
To really compete with programs like mathematica or matlab, I think sage needs to be able to have interactive applet-like interfaces (e.g. like mathematica's Manipulate). It seems possible and probably most desirable to do this with the notebook and javascript, but to me at least javascript seems clunky and difficult. A cross-platform GUI toolkit like Qt seems like an interesting alternative but I can't see how it would work over the notebook - i.e. it seems like the interfaces would have to be written server-side and compiled and run client-side. If it worked well, it would be worth a larger download in my opinion. Marshall On Nov 13, 9:46 am, "Ondrej Certik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello, > > > I have to agree with Martin on this.

I see little advantage in shipping a Qt application with Sage, especially since Qt4 static or dynamic adds easily 10 mb compressed. I have also written similar code (also qt 4.2.3 based) that has the added capability to wrap just about any open source math system text interface and run an arbitrary number of sessions in parallel. That code base is actively maintained (fact is I get paid to do so) and will be release to the public under the GPL in December or so. But: There isn't a reason to optionally have this interface, but the default supported mode of Sage on Windows is the browser interface. There are plenty of open tickets to improve that interface, and a single 1.0.0 release 1.5 years ago doesn't exactly give a lot of confidence. I would be glad if Ring would add a Sage mode and start to improve the software, but that has to happen on his end unless somebody here will step up and help out.

Hi there, Qt4 is GPL across all platforms including Windows. However, I don't see why and how we should/could include a program depending on Qt4 with SAGE? One of the reasons IIRC a webbrowser interface was implemented in the first place was to not include a rather heavy GUI toolkit.

He will take a closer look at the project. He'd find it interesting to integrate mathGUIde into SAGE.

[sage-devel] Re: plotQt.c with Qt 4.3.2 + GUI for pari/gp
The original Webpage says "[mathGUIde] ist Freeware und wird mit allen Quellen verbreitet" which means that "it's freeware and is distributed with all the sources". So it doesn't state any licensing details e.g. whether you may modify the source etc. Maybe I should download it and look into the sourcefiles? There could be some hidden licensing information.

I tried emailing the author of mathguide several times a few years ago, with no response. Of course, my email was in English, which might have been the problem. In any case, I did not get the impression that it was open source. Either I am wrong or I presume this guy got permission from the mathguide author to distribute a derived work based on his code?
