run Python file from command line in Sage

savecancel

I'm trying to run some Python file with Sage. I can import the module just fine within the interactive Sage IPython shell.

However, this very simple test fails:

sage sageruntest.py

where sageruntest.py contains the single line:

from sage.matrix.matrix2 import Matrix

It fails with:

I just stumbled upon local/bin/sage-eval which imports this at the beginning:

import sys
from sage.all import *
from sage.calculus.predefined import x
from sage.misc.preparser import preparse

When I do ...
