Oh, I didn't notice that underneath

         (process (apply 'start-process
			 (concat "netscape " url) nil

which made me think that netscape was hardwired... plus I don't think
browse-url-netscape-program was mentioned enough where is might have
been mentioned... or maybe one wouldn't look for the ability to use
browser 1 via browser 2's command...

Hmmm, should modern me be using Galeon or Mozilla?  Is it like one is
more free than the other, but the other is the only one that works on
accounts.corporate_towers.com style websites? 

Wait.  I use Chinese all day.  Is Galeon ready for Chinese?  Sorry to
ask here via piggyback.

By the way, I've got it so browse-url-of-buffer causes mozilla to
browse the file I want, however the I must still manually select the
mozilla window.
