Hi,
I'm using MacOS X 10.2.1
[~]% uname -v
Darwin Kernel Version 6.1: Fri Sep 6 23:24:34 PDT 2002;
root:xnu/xnu-344.2.obj~2/RELEASE_PPC
The bundled version of browse-url.el doesn't work by default as it's set to
work with Netscape, however it can easily be made to work with whatever browser
the user is using, it only take two lines:
(setq browse-url-browser-function (quote browse-url-generic))
(setq browse-url-generic-program "/usr/bin/open")
The open command do the right thing with urls under MacOS X (namely to open
them with the favorite protocol handler of the user.)
I hope this can be included in a future version of browse-url.el and emacs.
Regards,
Janus
