[sage-support] Re: Plotting from linux console mode?

In misc/viewer.py
sage: search_src('SAGE_BROWSER')
misc/viewer.py:if os.environ.has_key('SAGE_BROWSER'):
misc/viewer.py:BROWSER = os.environ['SAGE_BROWSER']
server/notebook/notebook_object.py:
SAGE_BROWSER environment variable, e.g., by putting
server/notebook/notebook_object.py: export
SAGE_BROWSER="firefox"
