Example of what is needed in sage prompt:
sage: is_sageprompt()
True
Example of what is needed in a notebook:
In an input cell: is_sagenotebook()
The output cell: True
There is an env variable of sorts called EMBEDDED_MODE, I think, which is used internally to tell whether one is in the notebook.

Loading Sage library. Current Mercurial branch is: plotpatches
sage: sage.plot.plot.EMBEDDED_MODE
FalseBut in the notebook this will give True.
Nice! It seems to me the natural place for some flag like that would be in notebook.*, which is where I looked for it.

Can you let us know how this would be useful? One of the things we like to do in Sage is make sure there is *not* a difference, so one can use either method, though things like @interact keep this from being 100% true.
I would like pretty print some results in both notebook and sage prompt. The comand html('
Big Table
') works fine in notebook but not in sage prompt. I will use html(...) in notebook and "print" in sage prompt.Then using this flag should work fine.
