notebook() with no X server and elink #1100

Closed gl-yziquel closed 9 months ago

gl-yziquel commented 9 months ago

I've tried doing using IJulia followed by notebook(). As I usually work over ssh in a terminal without X, it launched ~/.local/bin/jupyter notebook which launched the web browser, which here is... elinks.

So, bottom line: the julia repl freezes, as it waits for elinks to terminate. And elinks is moreover not displayed in the julia repl.

Question: would it not be possible to detect whether or not X is running before trying to launch jupyter notebook ? Or fine tune somewhat the jupyter notebook invocation ?

A way to call jupyter notebook --no-browser would be perfect.
