Subject: bug#58049: 29.0.50; Obsolete url schemes "info" and "man"
Date: Sat, 24 Sep 2022 19:05:13 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADwFkm=j0Nqd7svdTuuOK1Wjy0O6Oas076SSyrnRoXgLLGQsMQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Severity: wishlist
I don't think non-standard URLs like these are used much, and they're
probably not very useful. They're more likely to cause confusion.
(url-retrieve-synchronously "info:url#Retrieving URLs")
(url-retrieve-synchronously "man:cat")
I suggest support for such URLs is obsoleted, and that they are removed
from (info "(url) Supported URL Types").
