  - If you happen to use Windows, you might be able to install Sage using cygwin, but I don't think it is possible to install the Combinat queue. In that case one can also use the Sage-Combinat server at http://sage.lacim.uqam.ca. As this server is not completely reliable, this will not be the preferred way.
