mne_browse_raw (Python MNE): How can I access user interface?

Question

How can I access the user interface of mne_browse_raw as shown in this link ? When I type the command, for example,

$ mne browse_raw --raw test_raw.fif

I get

Opening raw data file C:\\Users\\Nico\\schotest_raw.fif...

Isotrak not found

Range : 0 ... 12900863 = 0.000 ... 25196.998 secs

Ready.

Adding average EEG reference projection.

And this view:

which doesn't have half the options as the layout shown in the link above. Am I lacking some additional parameter or something or could it be that the MNE programmers changed the layout of mne_browse_raw?

It is extremely hard to navigate through this simplified layout.

There are several 'flavors' of MNE. There is the C version you operate from the command line. There is a Python version that includes a lot more stuff, but is generally accessed from an IPython session. Finally, there is a also a MATLAB toolbox.

The user interface you want is from the C version. So install this version and you should have acces to the mne_browse_raw command.
