26 ;; WebJump provides a sort of ``programmable hotlist'' of Web sites that can
27 ;; quickly be invoked in your Web browser. Each Web site in the hotlist has a
28 ;; name, and you select the desired site name via a completing string prompt in
29 ;; the minibuffer. The URL for each Web site is defined as a static string or
30 ;; a built-in or custom function, allowing interactive prompting for
31 ;; site-specific queries and options.
33 ;; Note that WebJump was originally intended to complement your conventional
34 ;; browser-based hotlist, not replace it. (Though there's no reason you
35 ;; couldn't use WebJump for your entire hotlist if you were so inclined.)
37 ;; The `webjump-sites' variable, which defines the hotlist, defaults to some
38 ;; example sites. You'll probably want to override it with your own favorite
39 ;; sites. The documentation for the variable describes the syntax.
41 ;; You may wish to add something like the following to your init file:
44 ;; (global-set-key "\C-cj" 'webjump)
45 ;; (setq webjump-sites
47 ;; ("My Home Page" . "www.someisp.net/users/joebobjr/")
48 ;; ("Pop's Site" . "www.joebob-and-son.com/")
50 ;; webjump-sample-sites))
52 ;; The above loads this package, binds `C-c j' to invoke WebJump, and adds your
53 ;; personal favorite sites to the hotlist.
55 ;; The `webjump-sample-sites' variable mostly contains some site entries that
56 ;; are expected to be generally relevant to many users, but excluding
57 ;; those that the GNU project would not want to recommend.
59 ;; The `browse-url' package is used to submit URLs to the browser, so any
60 ;; browser-specific configuration should be done there.

282 "Hotlist for WebJump.
284 The hotlist is represented as an association list, with the CAR of each cell
285 being the name of the Web site, and the CDR being the definition for the URL of
286 that site. The URL definition can be a string (the URL), a vector (specifying
287 a special \"builtin\" which returns a URL), a symbol (name of a function which
288 returns a URL), or a list (which when `eval'ed yields a URL).
290 If the URL definition is a vector, then a \"builtin\" is used. A builtin has a
291 Lisp-like syntax, with the name as the first element of the vector, and any
292 arguments as the following elements. The three current builtins are `name',
293 which returns the name of the site as the URL, `simple-query', which
294 returns a URL that is a function of a query entered by the user, and `mirrors',
295 which allows the user to select from among multiple mirror sites for the same
298 The first argument to the `simple-query' builtin is a static URL to use if the
299 user enters a blank query. The second and third arguments are the prefix and
300 suffix, respectively, to add to the encoded query the user enters. This
301 builtin covers Web sites that have single-string searches with the query
304 The arguments to the `mirrors' builtin are URLs of mirror sites.
306 If the symbol of a function is given, then the function will be called with the
307 Web site name (the one you specified in the CAR of the alist cell) as a
308 parameter. This might come in handy for various kludges.
310 For convenience, if the `http://', `ftp://', or `file://' prefix is missing
311 from a URL, WebJump will make a guess at what you wanted and prepend it before
312 submitting the URL.")
