I'd like to use the box.com cli from a linux server without X installed. However, during "$ box login -n me@mydomain", boxcli tries to popup a web page with the message Opening browser for OAuth authentication. Please click Grant access to Box to continue.

I've tried exporting BROWSER=lynx , and have tested that "xdg-open http://eff.org/" works; but I am not seeing lynx open while running "box login". Do I need a 2nd terminal window, and then set DISPLAY so the "popup" browser opens lynx there?

Wondering if anyone has managed to setup box.com CLI on a headless, X-less server.

I'm blowing the cobwebs out of my mom's 1986 Ward's (Happy Sewing Co) machine. I have been watching videos of setting timing:

adjust timing until the hook passes through the scarf...

...and how to set the needle bar:

adjust needle bar height until the hook passes through the scarf...

(I'm paraphrasing)

It sounds like you could take a perfect machine, then lower the needle bar 1mm, then compensate by delaying the hook 30 degrees, and you'd have the hook passing through the scarf at the correct spot... yet it would be all wrong.

Is there a way to set needle-bar height independent of the hook timing?

Like, obviously the needle needs to rise a few millimeters to make the slack thread form into a loop behind the scarf, ready to be caught by the hook. Is that amount of rise kinda-sorta consistent across machines from a given era?
