See the + /urlm_add_override and /urlm_del_override commands for details. + +- Otherwise, the default browser (urlm_default_browser setting) is used. + +If <arg> is omitted, the default is to open the most recently captured URL. +If <arg> is provided, it must be a single numeric URL number (from the +output of /UL). Negative numbers are allowed, and are interpreted as +counting from the end of the list (so -1 means the second most recent +captured URL). + +Note: you do not need to define wget as a browser. urlmanager will use +its own internal wget support to run wget in a window if the file +extension is listed in urlm_wget_extensions. + |
