Looked through info and FAQs.
How do I set browse-url to a browser of my choice?
For instance, konqueror? :)
Thanks.

Does it work to
(setq browse-url-generic-program "konqueror"
browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic)
If not, you'd have to define your own function and set
browse-url-browser-function to it.

(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic)
(setq browse-url-generic-program "kfmclient")
(setq browse-url-generic-args (list "exec"))
(klipper uses kfmclient and exec rather than running konqueror
directly. I suspect this helps launch the right program immediately
(EG, a pdf viewer) instead of having to run konqueror first.

Nope doesn't work. Im no lisp expert, but I tried putting the above
in my .gnus and reloading. I get 'Symbols Function definition is
void: browse-url-generic'.
I also try to eval the above in *scratch* and then eval the
variables. Apparently they don't get set and are void.
My cvs version was from about 2 months ago.
Any ideas on this????
Thanks
BTW: Shouldn't this stuff be in the info page?

Then you don't have browse-url loaded. Put
(require 'browse-url)
above the statements.

Fair enough question. Do you want to write a passage on it and submit
it?

I just found that there is already a function handler for kde
specifically:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-kfm)

Thanks this works. Actually when greping lisp files I found it configurable
from the menuitems in Xemacs. Oh well.
Only thing is, it launches a new konqueror process every time. Maybe
it was written for KDE 1.x. There must be a way to just send the URL
to the running konqueror process.
Thanks again.

Did it. Still doesn't work. However,
(require 'browse-url)
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-kfm) works.
This is a problem with Xemacs, not gnus right?

What package is this lack of information part of? Xemacs or gnus?
Thanks norbert.

I'd say, part of XEmacs.
