??? What do you mean by "compile"?

Perhaps you expected that the SPAD code embedded in the pamphlet
file would be "compiled" the same way that

  \begin{spad}
  ...
  \end{spad}

is compiled on a wiki page? Unfortunately that is not yet supported
inside pamphlet files. To do that we need some extension to the
LaTeX style files that run Axiom automatically and embed the result
into the LaTeX code. The main reason is that we need pamphlet files
to work both inside and outside of the Axiom Wiki environment.

This does work now with the \begin{sageblock} and \sage commands.
It uses some LaTeX code that was contributed by a Sage developer.
See

What we have to do is extend this for Axiom.

To compile the code has to be in \begin{spad} ... \end{spad} in the
page source outside the pamphlet or on a non-pamphlet page.

Good.

To do that you can log in as a Zope user. If you like, I can do
it for you.
