When I right-click on a link, Emacs tries to start Netscape. This is not on
my system. I like to use FireFox, but I can not find where to change the
browser to use. How do I change the browser?

;(custom-set-variables

; '(browse-url-generic-program "dillo") ; or any other ...
; '(browse-url-temp-dir "~/tmp/")

Discover the function behind the key binding! I'm sure it will lead  
to the right places ... (or create a shell script ``netscape´´ that  
launches Firefox)
