25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; This package provides functions which read a URL (Uniform Resource
28 ;; Locator) from the minibuffer, defaulting to the URL around point,
29 ;; and ask a World-Wide Web browser to load it. It can also load the
30 ;; URL associated with the current buffer. Different browsers use
31 ;; different methods of remote control so there is one function for
32 ;; each supported browser. If the chosen browser is not running, it
33 ;; is started. Currently there is support for the following browsers,
34 ;; as well as some other obsolete ones:
36 ;; Function Browser Earliest version
37 ;; browse-url-mozilla Mozilla Don't know
38 ;; browse-url-firefox Firefox Don't know (tried with 1.0.1)
39 ;; browse-url-chrome Chrome 47.0.2526.111
40 ;; browse-url-chromium Chromium 3.0
41 ;; browse-url-epiphany Epiphany Don't know
42 ;; browse-url-conkeror Conkeror Don't know
43 ;; browse-url-w3 w3 0
44 ;; browse-url-text-* Any text browser 0
45 ;; browse-url-generic arbitrary
46 ;; browse-url-default-windows-browser MS-Windows browser
47 ;; browse-url-default-macosx-browser macOS browser
48 ;; browse-url-xdg-open Free Desktop xdg-open on Gnome, KDE, Xfce4, LXDE
49 ;; browse-url-kde KDE konqueror (kfm)
50 ;; browse-url-elinks Elinks Don't know (tried with 0.12.GIT)
52 ;; Browsers can cache Web pages so it may be necessary to tell them to
53 ;; reload the current page if it has changed (e.g., if you have edited
54 ;; it). There is currently no perfect automatic solution to this.
56 ;; This package generalizes function html-previewer-process in Marc
57 ;; Andreessen's html-mode (LCD modes/html-mode.el.Z). See also the
58 ;; ffap.el package. The huge hyperbole package also contains similar
59 ;; functions.
61 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
62 ;; Usage
64 ;; To display the URL at or before point:
65 ;; M-x browse-url-at-point RET
66 ;; or, similarly but with the opportunity to edit the URL extracted from
67 ;; the buffer, use:
68 ;; M-x browse-url
70 ;; To display a URL by shift-clicking on it, put this in your init file:
71 ;; (global-set-key [S-mouse-2] 'browse-url-at-mouse)
72 ;; (Note that using Shift-mouse-1 is not desirable because
73 ;; that event has a standard meaning in Emacs.)
75 ;; To display the current buffer in a web browser:
76 ;; M-x browse-url-of-buffer RET
78 ;; To display the current region in a web browser:
79 ;; M-x browse-url-of-region RET
81 ;; In Dired, to display the file named on the current line:
82 ;; M-x browse-url-of-dired-file RET
84 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
85 ;; Customization (~/.emacs)
87 ;; To see what variables are available for customization, type
88 ;; `M-x set-variable browse-url TAB'. Better, use
89 ;; `M-x customize-group browse-url'.
91 ;; Bind the browse-url commands to keys with the `C-c C-z' prefix
92 ;; (as used by html-helper-mode):
93 ;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-z." 'browse-url-at-point)
94 ;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zb" 'browse-url-of-buffer)
95 ;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zr" 'browse-url-of-region)
96 ;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zu" 'browse-url)
97 ;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zv" 'browse-url-of-file)
98 ;; (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
99 ;; (lambda ()
100 ;; (local-set-key "\C-c\C-zf" 'browse-url-of-dired-file)))
102 ;; Browse URLs in mail messages under RMAIL by clicking mouse-2:
103 ;; (add-hook 'rmail-mode-hook (lambda () ; rmail-mode startup
104 ;; (define-key rmail-mode-map [mouse-2] 'browse-url-at-mouse)))
105 ;; Alternatively, add `goto-address' to `rmail-show-message-hook'.
107 ;; Gnus provides a standard feature to activate URLs in article
108 ;; buffers for invocation of browse-url.
110 ;; Use the Emacs w3 browser when not running under X11:
111 ;; (or (eq window-system 'x)
112 ;; (setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-w3))
114 ;; To always save modified buffers before displaying the file in a browser:
115 ;; (setq browse-url-save-file t)
117 ;; To invoke different browsers for different URLs:
118 ;; (setq browse-url-browser-function '(("^mailto:" . browse-url-mail)
119 ;; ("." . browse-url-firefox)))
