Plots.jl has different behavior depending on the chosen backend. It
defaults to Plotly, which is why it opened in the browser. However, for
plots which open in their own window, you can try installing PyPlot, GR,
PlotlyJS, etc.: just checkout the backend
page: https://juliaplots.github.io/backends/.
I would recommend giving the PyPlot backend for Plots a try.
