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/sys- tem.urlview. There are two configuration commands (order does not matter): REGEXP regexp urlview uses a regular expression to extract URLs from the specified text files. , , and f are all converted to their nor- mal printf(3) meanings. The default REGEXP is: (((http|https|ftp|gopher)|mailto):(//)?[^ <>" ]*|(www|ftp)[0-9]?.[-a-z0-9.]+)[^ .,; <">):]?[^, <>" ]*[^ .,; <">):] 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: /etc/urlview/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 show- ing up inside the URL are handled properly. (Note that this shouldn't happen with the default regular expression, which explicitly excludes single 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/system.urlview 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. SEE ALSO

RMADISON(1) RMADISON(1) NAME
rmadison -- Remotely query the Debian archive database about packages SYNOPSIS
rmadison [OPTIONS] PACKAGE ... DESCRIPTION
dak ls queries the Debian archive database ("projectb") and displays which package version is registered per architecture/component/suite. The CGI at http://qa.debian.org/madison.php provides that service without requiring SSH access to ftp-master.debian.org or the mirror on ries.debian.org. This script, rmadison, is a command line frontend to this CGI. OPTIONS
-a, --architecture=ARCH only show info for ARCH(s) -b, --binary-type=TYPE only show info for binary TYPE -c, --component=COMPONENT only show info for COMPONENT(s) -g, --greaterorequal show buildd 'dep-wait pkg >= {highest version}' info -G, --greaterthan show buildd 'dep-wait pkg >> {highest version}' info -h, --help show this help and exit -s, --suite=SUITE only show info for this suite -S, --source-and-binary show info for the binary children of source pkgs -t, --time show projectb snapshot and reload time (not supported by all archives) -u, --url=URL[,URL ...] use URL for the query. Supported shorthands are debian or qa http://qa.debian.org/madison.php bpo http://backports.debian.org/cgi-bin/madison.cgi debug http://debug.debian.net/cgi-bin/madison.cgi ubuntu http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/madison.cgi udd http://qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/madison.cgi See the RMADISON_URL_MAP_ variable below for a method to add new shorthands. --version show version and exit --no-conf, --noconf don't read the devscripts configuration files ARCH, COMPONENT and SUITE can be comma (or space) separated lists, e.g. --architecture=m68k,i386 CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts are sourced by a shell in that order to set configuration variables. Command line options can be used to override configuration file settings. Environment variable settings are ignored for this purpose. The currently recognised variables are: RMADISON_URL_MAP_SHORTHAND=URL Add an entry to the set of shorthand URLs listed above. SHORTHAND should be replaced with the shorthand form to be used to refer to URL. Multiple shorthand entries may be specified by using multiple RMADISON_URL_MAP_* variables. RMADISON_DEFAULT_URL=URL Set the default URL to use unless overridden by a command line option. RMADISON_ARCHITECTURE=ARCH Set the default architecture to use unless overridden by a command line option. To run an unrestricted query when RMADISON_ARCHITECTURE is set, use --architecture='*'. NOTES
dak ls also supports -r, --regex to treat PACKAGE as a regex. Since that can easily DoS the database ("-r ."), this option is not supported by the CGI and rmadison. dak ls was formerly called madison. The protocol used by rmadison is fairly simple, the CGI accepts query the parameters a, b, c, g, G, s, S, t, and package. The parameter text is passed to enable plain-text output. SEE ALSO
