browse-url.el actually hardwires names

[Dan Jacobson]

Gentlemen, in browse-url.el we see passages like
(message "Starting Netscape...")
(apply 'start-process (concat "netscape" url) nil
       browse-url-netscape-program

He has hardwired the word Netscape into the message, whilst allowing
the variable browse-url-netscape-program to vary.

Therefor he would be better off saying
(message "Starting browse-url-netscape-program") or better
(message (concat "Starting " browse-url-netscape-program))

The user would then not still see "Netscape" when he has instead
left it for some future rival.

There are several similar occurrences of this throughout the file.
$ grep Starting /usr/share/emacs/21.3/lisp/net/browse-url.el
        (message "Starting Netscape...")
        (message "Starting Mozilla...")
        (message "Starting Galeon...")
      (message "Starting Mosaic...")
      (message "Starting Mosaic...done"))))
