Under Unix, graphical browsers are preferred under X11, but text-mode browsers
will be used if graphical browsers are not available or an X11 display isn't
available. If text-mode browsers are used, the calling process will block until
the user exits the browser.
If the environment variable :envvar:`BROWSER` exists, it is interpreted to
override the platform default list of browsers, as a :data:`os.pathsep`-separated
list of browsers to try in order. When the value of a list part contains the
string ``%s``, then it is interpreted as a literal browser command line to be
used with the argument URL substituted for ``%s``; if the part does not contain
``%s``, it is simply interpreted as the name of the browser to launch. [1]_

For non-Unix platforms, or when a remote browser is available on Unix, the
controlling process will not wait for the user to finish with the browser, but
allow the remote browser to maintain its own windows on the display. If remote
browsers are not available on Unix, the controlling process will launch a new
browser and wait.
The script :program:`webbrowser` can be used as a command-line interface for the
module. It accepts an URL as the argument. It accepts the following optional

These were changed to ````. For modules which do have a command-line interface, lists of options have been properly marked up with the program/cmdoption directives combo. Options defined in such blocks can be linked to with :option: later in the same file, they won’t link to an option of python. Finally, the markup of command-line fragments in optparse.rst has been cleaned to use ``x`` instead of ``"x"``, keeping that latter form for actual Python strings.

.. function:: register(name, constructor, instance=None)
2007-08-15 11:28:22 -03:00
Register the browser type *name*. Once a browser type is registered, the
:func:`get` function can return a controller for that browser type. If
*instance* is not provided, or is ``None``, *constructor* will be called without
parameters to create an instance when needed. If *instance* is provided,
*constructor* will never be called, and may be ``None``.
This entry point is only useful if you plan to either set the :envvar:`BROWSER`
variable or call :func:`get` with a nonempty argument matching the name of a
handler you declare.
A number of browser types are predefined. This table gives the type names that
may be passed to the :func:`get` function and the corresponding instantiations
for the controller classes, all defined in this module.

Notes:
(1)
"Konqueror" is the file manager for the KDE desktop environment for Unix, and
only makes sense to use if KDE is running. Some way of reliably detecting KDE
would be nice; the :envvar:`KDEDIR` variable is not sufficient. Note also that
the name "kfm" is used even when using the :program:`konqueror` command with KDE
2 --- the implementation selects the best strategy for running Konqueror.

Only on Windows platforms.
(3)
Only on Mac OS platforms; requires the standard MacPython :mod:`ic` module.
