Subject: xdg-open in Emacs in Termux (Android)
Date: Sun, 13 May 2018 12:48:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALn3zoi1k2eYzdQiadk6nvW4nycdOzah_N3BJjSbe1uGrGHy9w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all

With Emacs in Termux M-: (browse-url-xdg-open "http://gnu.org") opens
the URL in an Android browser. But M-: (browse-url-default-browser
"http://gnu.org") errors with "No usable browser found". This is
because even the most recent browse-url-can-use-xdg-open

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :eval no
  (defun browse-url-can-use-xdg-open ()
    "[...]"
    (and (or (getenv "DISPLAY") (getenv "WAYLAND_DISPLAY"))
         (executable-find "xdg-open")))
#+end_src

returns nil because none of the environment variables is set.

Should browse-url-can-use-xdg-open be changed to detect the situation of Termux?

Michael
