27 ;;; Commentary:
29 ;; The latest version of this package should be available from
30 ;; <URL:http://wombat.doc.ic.ac.uk/emacs/browse-url.el>.
32 ;; This package provides functions which read a URL (Uniform Resource
33 ;; Locator) from the minibuffer, defaulting to the URL around point,
34 ;; and ask a World-Wide Web browser to load it. It can also load the
35 ;; URL associated with the current buffer. Different browsers use
36 ;; different methods of remote control so there is one function for
37 ;; each supported browser. If the chosen browser is not running, it
38 ;; is started. Currently there is support for:
40 ;; Function Browser Earliest version
41 ;; browse-url-netscape Netscape 1.1b1
42 ;; browse-url-mosaic XMosaic <= 2.4
43 ;; browse-url-cci XMosaic 2.5
44 ;; browse-url-w3 w3 0
45 ;; browse-url-iximosaic IXI Mosaic ?
47 ;; Note that versions of Netscape before 1.1b1 did not have remote
48 ;; control. <URL:http://home.netscape.com/newsref/std/x-remote.html>
49 ;; and <URL:http://home.netscape.com/info/APIs/>.
51 ;; Netscape can cache Web pages so it may be necessary to tell it to
52 ;; reload the current page if it has changed (eg. if you have edited
53 ;; it). There is currently no perfect automatic solution to this.
55 ;; Netscape allows you to specify the id of the window you want to
56 ;; control but which window DO you want to control and how do you
57 ;; discover its id?
59 ;; If using XMosaic before version 2.5, check the definition of
60 ;; browse-url-usr1-signal below.
61 ;; <URL:http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/XMosaic/remote-control.html>
63 ;; XMosaic version 2.5 introduced Common Client Interface allowing you
64 ;; to control mosaic through Unix sockets.
65 ;; <URL:http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/XMosaic/CCI/cci-spec.html>
67 ;; William M. Perry's excellent "w3" WWW browser for
68 ;; Emacs <URL:ftp://cs.indiana.edu/pub/elisp/w3/>
69 ;; has a function w3-follow-url-at-point, but that
70 ;; doesn't let you edit the URL like browse-url.
72 ;; I recommend Nelson Minar <nelson@santafe.edu>'s excellent
73 ;; html-helper-mode.el for editing HTML and thank Nelson for
74 ;; his many useful comments on this code.
75 ;; <URL:http://www.santafe.edu/~nelson/hhm-beta/>
77 ;; This package generalises function html-previewer-process in Marc
78 ;; Andreessen <marca@ncsa.uiuc.edu>'s html-mode (LCD
79 ;; modes/html-mode.el.Z) and provides better versions of the URL
80 ;; functions in Michelangelo Grigni <mic@cs.ucsd.edu>'s ffap.el
81 ;; (find-file-at-point) <URL:ftp://cs.ucsd.edu:/pub/mic/>. The huge
82 ;; hyperbole package also contains similar functions.
84 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
85 ;; Help!
87 ;; Can you write and test some code for the Macintrash and Windoze
88 ;; Netscape remote control APIs? (See the URL above).
90 ;; Do any other browsers have remote control?
92 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
93 ;; Installation
95 ;; Put the following in your ~/.emacs file:
97 ;; (autoload 'browse-url-at-point "browse-url"
98 ;; "Ask a WWW browser to load the URL at or before point." t)
99 ;; (autoload 'browse-url-at-mouse "browse-url"
100 ;; "Ask a WWW browser to load a URL clicked with the mouse." t)
101 ;; (autoload 'browse-url-of-buffer "browse-url"
102 ;; "Ask a WWW browser to display BUFFER." t)
103 ;; (autoload 'browse-url-of-file "browse-url"
104 ;; "Ask a WWW browser to display FILE." t)
105 ;; (autoload 'browse-url-of-dired-file "browse-url"
106 ;; "In Dired, ask a WWW browser to display the file named on this line." t)
108 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
109 ;; Usage
111 ;; To display the URL at or before point:
112 ;; M-x browse-url-at-point RET
114 ;; To display a URL by shift-clicking on it, put this in your ~/.emacs
115 ;; file:
116 ;; (global-set-key [S-mouse-1] 'browse-url-at-mouse)
118 ;; To display the current buffer in a web browser:
119 ;; M-x browse-url-of-buffer RET
121 ;; In Dired, to display the file named on the current line:
122 ;; M-x browse-url-of-dired-file RET
124 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
125 ;; Customisation (~/.emacs)
127 ;; To see what variables are available for customization, type `M-x
128 ;; set-variable browse-url TAB'.
130 ;; To bind the browse-url commands to keys with the `C-c u' prefix:
131 ;; (global-set-key "\C-cu." 'browse-url-at-point)
132 ;; (global-set-key "\C-cub" 'browse-url-of-buffer)
133 ;; (global-set-key "\C-cuf" 'browse-url-of-file)
134 ;; (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
135 ;; (lambda ()
136 ;; (local-set-key "\C-cuf" 'browse-url-of-dired-file))))
137 ;; (if (boundp 'browse-url-browser-function)
138 ;; (global-set-key "\C-cuu" browse-url-browser-function)
139 ;; (eval-after-load
140 ;; "browse-url"
141 ;; '(global-set-key "\C-cuu" browse-url-browser-function)))
143 ;; To use the Emacs w3 browser when not running under X11:
144 ;; (if (not (eq window-system 'x))
145 ;; (setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-w3))
147 ;; To always save modified buffers before displaying the file in a browser:
148 ;; (setq browse-url-save-file t)
150 ;; To get round the Netscape caching problem, you could try either of
151 ;; the following (but not both). EITHER write-file in
152 ;; html-helper-mode makes Netscape reload document:
154 ;; (autoload 'browse-url-netscape-reload "browse-url"
155 ;; "Ask a WWW browser to redisplay the current file." t)
156 ;; (add-hook 'html-helper-mode-hook
157 ;; (function (lambda ()
158 ;; (add-hook 'local-write-file-hooks
159 ;; (function (lambda ()
160 ;; (let ((local-write-file-hooks))
161 ;; (save-buffer))
162 ;; (browse-url-netscape-reload)
163 ;; t)) ; => file written by hook
164 ;; t)))) ; append to l-w-f-hooks
166 ;; [Does this work for html-mode too?]
168 ;; OR browse-url-of-file ask Netscape to load and then reload the
169 ;; file:
171 ;; (add-hook 'browse-url-of-file-hook 'browse-url-netscape-reload)
173 ;; You may also want to customise browse-url-netscape-arguments, eg.
175 ;; (setq browse-url-netscape-arguments '("-install"))
177 ;; or similarly for the other browsers.
