WEBBROWSER(1) General Commands Manual WEBBROWSER(1) NAME Webbrowser - run the best available browser on this system SYNOPSIS webbrowser [-h|--help] webbrowser [-b|--browsers 'browser list'] [arguments to browser] DESCRIPTION Webbrowser is a shell script that attempts to find and run the best available browser from a list, which may be specified on the command line, via the environment, or from a built in default list. Webbrowser is intended for use from applications that use HTML or other browser-based documentation, but cannot depend on a specific browser being installed. A browser list specified on the command line overrides other lists. If no list is specified on the command line, webbrowser checks the envi- ronment variable BESTBROWSERS. If this variable does not exist, web- browser falls back to a built-in default list. Additional arguments are passed onto whichever browser is invoked. It is the user's (or calling application's) responsibility to ensure that the arguments are appropriate for any browser that might be selected. OPTIONS -h, --help Display a brief usage synopsis. -b, --browsers 'list' Select from 'list' instead of the default list. The list must be quoted in order to separate it from 'arguments'.
