emacs to Mozilla

emacs to Mozilla

[kgold]

I had emacs set up so URL's would be highlighted.  S-mouse-2
would send the URL to Netscape.  Now we've upgraded to Mozilla.
How do I change the target program.

S-mouse-2 runs goto-address-at-mouse.  goto-addr.el says it uses
browse-url.el.

I tried the obvious:

(setq-default browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic)
(setq-default browse-url-generic-program "mozilla")

but it didn't work.

Recent Emacsen have the function browse-url-mozilla which could be
used instead.

Another possibility is to continue using browse-url-netscape but set
browse-url-netscape-program to "mozilla".  After all, they should be
rather similar.

        Ummm, yes.   I should  have mentioned when  I suggested  it on
this list that I was following CVS.   But it works like a charm if you
get a copy of the CVS version.  :-D

Sorry,
