If you use Mathematica mainly for graphics, Jupyter is not for you. A Jupyter interface is great for remote Kernels and Markdown/LaTeX, things that Mathematica does not support that well.

Regarding the black page, is it a problem of safari ? If the out.pdf is properly exported in the JWLout folder but safari does not open it, maybe safari is not well suited to work with Jupyter. As I mention in the description, JWLS is not much more than a couple of fifo on top of a bash_kernel.

Dear murray, try the show function. E.g. Plot3D[Sin[x y],{x,-Pi,Pi},{y,-Pi,Pi}] // show It will return the address of the exported output; if you click it, a new browser tab will open. If your browser does not open the exported graphics, browse into the JWLSout folder in your notebook home folder ; that's a temporary folder with out.pdf of out.png in it. You can keep the out.pdf tab open and refresh it everytime you call again show because it will be overwritten.

Hi Murray, thanks for your feedback. That is MacOS sed complaining about the use of ~ . A solution is to install gnu-sed: brew install gnu-sed and then replace "sed" with "gsed" at line 164 of kernel.py .
