Browse url

[aalinovi]

Browse URL Browser Function lists:

Text browser in an xterm window
Text browser in an emacs window

Is there any way to set the browse url function to use the terminal emulator of
your choice, in my case text browser in a kitty window?

Thank you

"Text browser in an xterm window" sets the browse-url-browser-function
to 'browse-url-text-xterm'

C-h f browse-url-text-xterm  gives you the following *Help* buffer:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
browse-url-text-xterm is an autoloaded interactive byte-compiled Lisp
function in ‘browse-url.el’.

(browse-url-text-xterm URL &optional NEW-WINDOW)

Ask a text browser to load URL.
URL defaults to the URL around or before point.
This runs the text browser specified by ‘browse-url-text-browser’.
in an Xterm window using the Xterm program named by ‘browse-url-xterm-program’
with possible additional arguments ‘browse-url-xterm-args’.
The optional argument NEW-WINDOW is not used.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So I guess customizing 'browse-url-xterm-program' to kitty would do.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I also had to remove options I had in browse-url-xterm-args
but now it works as I wanted.

I learn something new every day.

Good.  And as you can see Emacs has also commands to learn from itself
;)
