urlview(1)                  General Commands Manual                 urlview(1)

NAME
       urlview - URL extractor/launcher
SYNOPSIS
       urlview filename [ filename ... ]
DESCRIPTION
       urlview  is  a  screen  oriented  program for extracting URLs from text
       files and displaying a menu from which you may launch a command to view
       a specific item.
CONFIGURATION
       urlview attempts to read ~/.urlview upon startup.  If this file doesn't
       exist, it will try to read a system  wide  file  in  /etc/urlview.conf.
       There are two configuration commands (order does not matter):
       REGEXP regexp
              urlview uses a regular expression to extract URLs from the spec-
              ified text files.  \r, \t, \n and \f are all converted to  their
              normal printf(3) meanings.  The default REGEXP is:
       (((http|https|ftp|gopher)|mailto):(//)?[^ <>"\t]*|(www|ftp)[0-9]?\.[-a-z0-9.]+)[^ .,;\t\n\r<">\):]?[^, <>"\t]*[^ .,;\t\n\r<">\):]

       COMMAND command
              If  the  specified  command contains a %s, it will be subsituted
              with the URL that was requested, otherwise the URL  is  appended
              to the COMMAND string.  The default COMMAND is:
              /usr/bin/url_handler.sh
       Note:  You  should never put single quotes around the %s.  urlview does
       this for you, and also makes sure that single quotes eventually showing
       up inside the URL are handled properly.  (Note that this shouldn't hap-
       pen with the default regular expression, which explicitly excludes sin-
       gle quotes.)
       WRAP  choice
              Enable  or  disable  URL  wrapping. Valid values for choice are:
              yes, no (case insensitive).  If this option is not supplied, the
              default behaviour is to disable wrapping.
FILES
       /etc/urlview.conf
              system-wide urlview configuration file
       ~/.urlview
              urlview configuration file
ENVIRONMENT
       If  the  environment variable BROWSER is set to a browser command, or a
       colon-delimited list of commands to try, then the specified browser  is
       used.  %s is replaced with the quoted url to view. If %s is not part of
       a command, the url is appended to the command.
       The BROWSER environment variable is honored only if the rc-file doesn't
       contain the COMMAND option.  The rc-file provided by the Debian package
       contains a COMMAND option.
