[sage-support] Re: problem with 'view', question about 'view'
This actually bothered me for a while too. There is a patch on the trac ticket, please test it out on Linux :-) On Thu, May 8, 2008 at 5:16 PM, William Stein [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Thu, May 8, 2008 at 5:12 PM, William Stein [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Wed, May 7, 2008 at 12:26 PM, John H Palmieri [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A problem: on my linux box, if I use 'view' (not in a notebook), an xdvi window appears then immediately disappears.

It's reasonable to consider this a bug, since view should I think just use the OS X open command as defined in sage/misc/viewer.py, i.e., use whatever is the default opener for a dvi file on your system. It's hardcoded xdvi right now since that was some of the first sage code I ever wrote and that was long before I ported Sage to run on OS X...

(By the way, I am unable to reproduce my problem from a few days ago, either before applying the patch or after. Maybe my computer was just acting up?)
