;;; Commentary:
|
|
|
|
;; This package provides functions which read a URL (Uniform Resource
|
|
;; Locator) from the minibuffer, defaulting to the URL around point,
|
|
;; and ask a World-Wide Web browser to load it. It can also load the
|
|
;; URL associated with the current buffer. Different browsers use
|
|
;; different methods of remote control so there is one function for
|
|
;; each supported browser. If the chosen browser is not running, it
|
|
;; is started. Currently there is support for:
|
|
|
|
;; Function Browser Earliest version

|
|
|
|
;; [The Netscape browser is now free software
|
|
;; <URL:http://www.mozilla.org/>, albeit not GPLed, so it is
|
|
;; reasonable to keep it as the default.]
|
|
|
|
;; Note that versions of Netscape before 1.1b1 did not have remote
|
|
;; control. <URL:http://www.netscape.com/newsref/std/x-remote.html>.
|
|
|
|
;; Browsers can cache Web pages so it may be necessary to tell them to
|
|
;; reload the current page if it has changed (e.g. if you have edited
|
|
;; it). There is currently no perfect automatic solution to this.
|
|
|
|
;; Netscape allows you to specify the id of the window you want to
|
|
;; control but which window DO you want to control and how do you
|
|
;; discover its id?
|
|
|
|
;; If using XMosaic before version 2.5, check the definition of
|
|
;; browse-url-usr1-signal below.

|
|

|
|
;; Usage
|
|
|
|
;; To display the URL at or before point:
|
|
;; M-x browse-url-at-point RET
|
|
;; or, similarly but with the opportunity to edit the URL extracted from
|
|
;; the buffer, use:
|
|
;; M-x browse-url
|
|
|
|
;; To display a URL by shift-clicking on it, put this in your ~/.emacs
|
|
;; file:
|
|
;; (global-set-key [S-mouse-2] 'browse-url-at-mouse)
|
|
;; (Note that using Shift-mouse-1 is not desirable because
|
|
;; that event has a standard meaning in Emacs.)
|
|
|
|
;; To display the current buffer in a web browser:
|
|
;; M-x browse-url-of-buffer RET
|
|
|
|
;; To display the current region in a web browser:
|
|
;; M-x browse-url-of-region RET
|
|
|
|
;; In Dired, to display the file named on the current line:
|
|
;; M-x browse-url-of-dired-file RET
|
|
|
|
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
|
|
;; Customisation (~/.emacs)
|
|
|
|
;; To see what variables are available for customization, type
|
|
;; `M-x set-variable browse-url TAB'. Better, use
|
|
;; `M-x customize-group browse-url'.
|
|
|
|
;; Bind the browse-url commands to keys with the `C-c C-z' prefix
|
|
;; (as used by html-helper-mode):
|
|
;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-z." 'browse-url-at-point)
|
|
;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zb" 'browse-url-of-buffer)
|

;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zr" 'browse-url-of-region)
|
|
;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zu" 'browse-url)

;; (global-set-key "\C-c\C-zv" 'browse-url-of-file)
|

|
|
|

;; To get round the Netscape caching problem, you could EITHER have
|
|
;; write-file in html-helper-mode make Netscape reload the document:
|
|
;;
|
|
;; (autoload 'browse-url-netscape-reload "browse-url"

|
|
;; t) ; => file written by hook
|
|
;; t))) ; append to l-w-f-hooks
|
|
;;
|
|
;; OR have browse-url-of-file ask Netscape to load and then reload the
|
|
;; file:
|
|
;;
|
|
;; (add-hook 'browse-url-of-file-hook 'browse-url-netscape-reload)

;; You may also want to customise browse-url-netscape-arguments, e.g.
|
|
;; (setq browse-url-netscape-arguments '("-install"))
|
|
;;
|
|
;; or similarly for the other browsers.
|
|
|
|
;; To invoke different browsers for different URLs:
