Subject: Dired command for a GUI browser?
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2013 08:11:39 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87vc8lar5w.fsf@engels.HistoricalMaterialism.info> (raw)

I daily have to run the "! w3m" command on an .html file selected in
dired. However these .html files are from a particular source, and their
organization makes the w3m display very difficult to read. I am running
Emacs under Debian Squeeze.

I would like to run a Firefox or Conkeror command on those files, but
when I try "! firefox", Firebox starts but reports page not found. As
best I can make out none of the emacs or dired extensions address this
problem.
