Is it possible to customize the default behavior of sagetex?

asked 6 years ago

When using sagetex, I want my matrices to have square brackets and my vectors to have angled brackets. Hence, the first thing I do after \begin{document} is include the code

  \begin{sagesilent}
    latex.matrix_delimiters(left='[', right=']')
    latex.vector_delimiters(left='<', right='>')
  \end{sagesilent}

This is very annoying. Is it possible to set sagetex up to do this by default?

You can follow the strategy given in my answer to this question you made later. For the sake of completeness, I adapt it here.

Write a tex file with all the code you need to config SageTeX:

\begin{sagesilent}
   latex.matrix_delimiters(left='[', right=']')
   latex.vector_delimiters(left='<', right='>')
\end{sagesilent}
\endinput

Call it, for example, STconfig.tex. Then write a small package mysagetex.sty with the following content:

\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
\ProvidesPackage{mysagetex}[2019/02/20 v.0.1]
\RequirePackage{sagetex}
\AtBeginDocument{\input{STconfig}}
\endinput

Put both files together where TeX can find them. In the source tex file, it suffices to load mysagetex instead of sagetex, e.g., add \usepackage{mysagetex} to the preamble.
