This is currently all only supported by %loadpy<br>
For item 1 above, the user would need to upload the file to a server<br>
& load from there<br></div></blockquote><div><br>We should clarify that at the moment, we're mostly running the web notebook locally, or at least on our own computers. So it's easy enough to load up modules & data whether we're using the notebook, the Qt console or the terminal.<br>
<br>For c) above, we quite definitely support saving the notebook on the server, so you can come back to it, rerun code, copy code out, etc. There's also a plan to integrate it with gist, so you can publish versioned copies of your notebook with one button.<br>
<br>Obviously, if you want to run it on a remote server which the user doesn't control, you'd want some way to get code and data to that server. The Pythonanywhere guys have quite a neat solution with dropbox - you register your dropbox username, share files with their bot, and the files turn up in your PA directory. To my knowledge, we've not attempted to tackle that problem in the notebook itself. I guess the administrators providing the notebook will want to give users varying levels of access.<br>
