When I ran GNOME, I used to be able to click on any link in Emacs, and it would open in my default web browser.
But now that I'm using i3, it doesn't work any more, even though I haven't changed any Emacs settings. I don't get any messages or errors—it just does nothing. I also tried M-x browse-url-at-point
, while on a URL, but that doesn't work, either.
As far as I can tell, I have the appropriate settings: browse-url-browser-function
is browse-url-generic
, and browse-url-generic-program
is set to qutebrowser
, my default browser. So why can't I open URLs? And/or how can I debug this?
