I think this sounds great, I give a hearty +1. I've gotten frustrated in the past by the plotting code. Being "more closely tied to matplotlib" would be nice for lots of reasons. The matplotlib documentation is pretty good, and maybe some of what we do could find its way upstream in Mike's appr

it's pcomplete, not pycomplete. It's supposed to act like the TAB key when you run SAGE in a console. So if you're in the sage buffer under emacs, type "MatrixS" and then run M-x sage-pcomplete-or-help (or hit F2 !) it should complete to "MatrixSpace". On Nov 16, 12:32 pm, Thomas Kahle <[EMAIL PR

you need to try M-x run-sage before using the sage mode. Afterwords everything works fine. All the commands related to python now work with sage instead. However you might notice the following bug: C-c C-l does not work anymore in python mode ! and i mean even before running M-x run- sage... at l
