CTAN Update: sagetex
by CTAN Announcements 20 Jun '09

20 Jun '09

On Sat, 20 Jun 2009 Dan Drake submitted an update to the sagetex package. Sagetex allows you to embed code, the results of computations, plots, and graphics from the Sage mathematics software suite into LaTeX documents. It is similar in spirit to Literate Haskell and lhs2TeX. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/sagetex Summary description: Embed Sage code and plots into LaTeX. License type: gpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is version 2.2.1 of SageTeX, which brings a lot of improvements over the version currently on CTAN. It now includes a number of extra Python scripts which help users parse documents that use SageTeX, and a script that uses a remote Sage server instead of a local Sage installation -- so now all you need to use SageTeX is TeX and Python. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/sagetex/ .
