Ivan, yes, downloading and installing the two patches for trac_11795 and then configuring appropriately seems to work for DVI, PDF, and PNG. (in case it isn't obvious, i'm a sage newbie, so i'm not sure how to get sage to display an html file, assuming the 'browser' entry is supposed to display html.)
a couple of comments about the patch (to the extent i understand it): 1. to override the default, i seem to need to define a function, and assign that function to, e.g., sage.misc.viewer.dvi_viewer. nicer (?) might be to set some variable to '/sw/bin/xdvi'. 2. if the function returns an invalid path for png_viewer, circle() fails silently. an error message, and then falling back to the default, might be easier on users. (this is probably outside the scope of this patch.) and, of course, plot3d() still uses the Cocoa version of jmol. (but, 3 out of 4 isn't bad! ;-) cheers, Greg On Monday, December 17, 2012 2:54:53 AM UTC-5, Ivan Andrus wrote: > > Hmm.
