Actually I don't think anything went wrong.  The behavior was just unexpected.

Gees, you're right.  That's very odd but true.  It's perhaps very nice
that 3d from the notebook and 3d from the command line are identical though.

By the way, I can replicate the problem that Marshall reported about the "red
box". This is a new problem, which wasn't in the earlier versions that I
tried on the command line (from you). You should try a clean
sage-2.9.1.1 install -- you'll
see the problem.   In addition to the jmol gui popping up, another gui window
pops up with the label:
    "java.io.FileNotFoundException:
/Users/was/Desktop/shape-size400.obj (No such file or directory)."
and a big red box in it.  Does this ring a bell to you?
