which browser

[John Cremona]

I am running Sage on a linux machine which has chromium-browser as the
default browser, but when I type

sage --notebook=jupyter

it starts firefox and opens in a tab there. How can I get it to use chrome?

sage --notebook=jupyter --browser=chromium-browser


does work but can I make it the default?

Have you tried setting the BROWSER environment variable? If that doesn't work, what about SAGE_BROWSER?

Thanks -- I am now feeling quite red-faced since my .bashrc file has

export BROWSER=firefox

in it. Changing that to chromium-browser does the trick. This is a
university-supplied & configured machine which recently had a system
upgrade. They used not to provide chrome but now they do. They also
provide Sage-8.0 as standard!
