*browser-location*

Variable
Signature

*browser-location*

Package

lispworks

Initial Value

nil

Description

Controls how the online documentation interface and the function open-url find a web browser executable (either Netscape, Firefox, Mozilla or Opera) to use. The value should be nil or a string.

If the value is nil , LispWorks attempts to find the browser using the value of the environment variable PATH .

If the value is a string, it specifies the directory in which the browser is installed. Typical values are "/usr/bin/" and "/usr/local/bin/" .

Note: do not omit the trailing slash.

Note: *browser-location* is used only in the Motif-based IDE.
