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 spec-
    ified text files.  \r, \t, \n and \f are all converted to  their
    normal 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 showing
    up inside the URL are handled properly. (Note that this shouldn't hap-
    pen with the default regular expression, which explicitly excludes sin-
    gle quotes.)

FILES
    /etc/urlview.conf
    system-wide urlview configuration file

    ~/.urlview
    urlview configuration file
