Hi, Could someone with a Windows machine make an entry in the documentation or on the FAQ about how to share files between the Ubuntu virtual machine and the host Windows operating system? Maybe with screenshots? (see email below)

I believe that the easiest way is to share a folder on your Windows computer and then mount it from the Ubuntu virtual machine (the filesystem that Sage runs on is an image file for vmware so Windows can't peek inside directly). Here are some instructions that should work: http://mytechnotes.wordpress.com/2007/05/21/windows-shared-folder-from-ubuntu/ I'll forward you question to sage-devel because there really should be a step by step guide with screenshots for sharing files. (I would have done it myself this morning but I don't have a Windows PC here). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage/ and http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
