urlview
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 specified text files.
, ,
and f are all converted to their nor-
mal printf(3) meanings. The default REGEXP is:
(((https?|ftp|gopher)://|(mailto|file|news):)[^' <>"]+|(www|web|w3).[-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:
url_handler.sh %s
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.)
FILES
/etc/urlview.conf
system-wide urlview configuration file
~/.urlview
urlview configuration file
